I wonder if this will start to become an advertising trend — perhaps Safeway will start running ads encouraging customers to use the self check-out because its workers are too dumb to operate the cash registers. All scored to a particularly irritating Train song, of course, because this is apparently some sort of federal mandate. I blame expansive readings of the commerce clause and the inherent conservatism of the Affordable Care Act.
