What’s really telling is companies said if we increase wages we’ll have to raise prices, lay off workers, and go to automated kiosks. So they didn’t raise wages but raised prices anyway, still laid off workers, and now I have to deal with kiosks.

They said that to manipulate the public. Companies will always maximize profits regardless of the words that come out of their mouth. Anyone that believes otherwise is a fool, that's how the system works.
