Where's the checkout counter?
结帐柜台在哪里?
The most mundane example is one you will see in every supermarket: checkout staff replaced by a single employee monitoring a bank of self-service machines. (Though perhaps this is not automation proper – the supermarket has just shifted some of the work of shopping onto the customer.)
目前资本取代劳动力的趋势已经不仅局限在制造业。 最不起眼的例子是超市用由一名员工监督的银行自助服务机取代了收银员的岗位。 (虽然这样的自动化并不恰当,因为超市将购物的工作部分转嫁给了顾客。 )
I would guess that most prostitutes have chosen their work reluctantly, under pressure of need, not involuntarily. If men who use their services are criminalized, then so should people who use the services of supermarket checkout employees, call-center workers, and so on.
诚然,一些妓女被奴役,使用她们的服务的男性应该被起诉。 但对于禁止使用奴工已经有了成文法。 我猜大部分妓女是只是不情愿(reluctantly)地选择了她们的工作,迫于压力才这么做,但不是不自愿(involuntarily ) 。 如果使用她们的服务的男性被入罪,那么使用超市收银员、呼叫中心工人等服务的人也应该背入罪。
