But they won't. And they could already be paid more (see McD in Norway and McD in the US, drastically different minimum wage but basically the same prices), but aren't.

> The service will be much better with robots.

Doubt it.

I’ve experienced much better service with the robots we have so far. Ordering by kiosk or app is so much easier than talking to a human cashier.

Based on that experience I think a robot burger maker will be less likely to forget to add the burger to the burger.

A Big Mac with soda and fries is well over $20 in Norway.

Those high wages have to come from somewhere. Margins in the food service industry are incredibly tight.

I was in Norway a few weeks ago and paid just under 100kr or roughly $11 for a Big Mac, soda and fries.

Maybe that's just the USD being weak compared to krone, I could complain about how many pesos a mcfish costs in hong kong
