Robot slavers

[Erythnul]

Sorry, Boba.

Anyway, all I know about this topic is that, according to a BLS member I occasionally smuggled with, Malta requires human labor for Cardi picking because the atmosphere renders robots inoperable. The obvious conclusion is that most other factions regularly use robots for menial tasks.

However, various factions (the most prominent example being the Xenos) exist due to their blue-collar jobs being taken by foreigners, and the Texan economy relies on prison labor, so human workers are definitely still very widespread. Besides, all the NPCs one meets outside of automated (Baxter or Gammu, for example) and/or GC bases (GC only because all vendor models are male; likely an OORP rationale) are human.

I couldn't come to any definite conclusion, but I'd say robot labor isn't generally all that widespread. The human uproar at being cast out to starve in favor of a machine would likely be too great, anyway.
