In and of itself, automation hasn't done that.

Forgetting the importance of unions has done that.
Letting unions leaders sacrifice the rights of junior members to enshrine the rights of the senior members has done that. Speaking of that: fuck the leadership of the UFCW. You double crossing snake ass motherfuckers.

Letting union leaders and government officials get cozy trips courtesy of companies has done that.

UFCW needs more grassroots activist members who will fight for the contracts they have and to rally blocs against the bullshit two-tier, no raise crap they push after every negotiation.
