With people my age going into college getting things like genders studies then gets out with a massive debt and no actual job they can go in they go into McDonalds with a huge thing thinking they should be payed more since they have a degree and they have a strike which either they raise minimum wage or create robots to deal with this problem

Well jobs like McDonalds will soon go away, I'd say. But I don't see how shutting down Gender Studies will help make more jobs? It may create more "workers" but that won't magically bring in more jobs imo.
Basically we are making non exist degrees for non existent jobs. Take for example either have Bob and Joe help Sewers or have Joe work pine cone counting and Bob work rock throwing. It creates problems with the fact that there are almost no jobs for these degrees
Well but if the robots clean the sewers, it does not matter what degree Bob and Joe have, they will be jobless anyhow.
I guess but if they both worked in the sewers the industry wouldnt think of making these robots in the first place.
Well the robot is cheaper, is never ill, never dies and works 24h. And it can be replaced without any hassle for the next better model.
Does need repair etc. But I hope companies dont go down this route because I dont know if you remember but back in the 90's Taco Bell went full Robot and was quicker but had to revert back because people liked the communication and seeing people work
The thing is, when it happens gradually then people are way more likely to adopt to it. Order your food at a display and get it served by a human. Then replace the cook. Then replace the server. At the end most jobs are gone. And for the car industry, robots already do most jobs and humans currently only do the last assembly stages, but once AI gets smarter, this will be replaced too.
Have you watched the video by CGP Grey? That one is really good in showing whit will be replaced first. And jobs like sewer cleaning will be the first being replaced, because no one sees them work so no one cares.
I agree with you that this is not good, but I think it is still inevitable.
