I can see you have never been to a union jobsite before.

BTW...the real reason there are less robotic in US factories has less to do with union resistance and more to do with the fact that in order to mechanize a factory, a substantial initial investment is needed and US shareholders were not willing to take the loss on investment that would happen during the first few years...but the Japs were.
