I agree with every single comment in this thread so far and I hate self-checkout. However...

...the stores do this to save money. If they have to hire more cashiers, they will raise their prices enough to compensate for the additional overhead. That's Business 101.

If govt mandates an untenable minimum wage, business figures out a way to eliminate jobs: self-checkout, ordering kiosks at McD, Amazon vs brick & mortar. You can't have it both ways.
