Let me translate this through process from rich asshole to regular human:
- People need roommates because they cannot afford to live on their own.
- The reason they cannot afford to live on their own is because they aren’t working enough hours (to make him more money.
- The reason they aren’t working enough hours is because they have to spend too much time engaged in activities that aren’t work.
- A robot frees them of having to do things that aren’t work.
- Thefore a domestic robot will make his workers do more work and achieve their purpose of working and paying all their bills.

He will also make money renting domestic robots to his workers and take the cost off their paychecks while also spying on them at home and selling that data to other companies.

Thank you. It’s actually quite reasonable when you put it that way.

They just forgot the part where the people that need roommates don’t have money to buy a robot, or pay the subscription for the robot, or the “don’t kill me in my sleep” premium upgrade for said robot subscription.

Well you see, if we increase costs to a point where you need to work 100+ hours a week just to survive then you’ll have to buy the robot just to do it.
