    That violates Asimov's 3 rules of robotics:

    Asimov?s Three Laws are as follows:

    A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
    A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
    A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.

    Nah,...................................................for what one of those would cost, you could hit Taco Bell every couple days for life, and still have $$ left over.

    Besides, If I hit Taco Bell, it is on the way home from work - when I pass them. No extra trip required.

    They are going to need robots. Right now, 70% of the enlistment age population in the US is not ELIGIBLE to enlist.

    Unable to meet standards- physical, mental, emotional, moral.

    Overweight, out of shape, heavily medicated, nuttier than squirrel poop, stoners, longer record than Al Capone, uneducated.

    Leaving the 30% that ARE qualified thinking "For Christ's sake- you want me to protect THEM?"

    I have said to many acquaintances, If we get in deep Sheeit, we are going to be Screwed. The resolve and the fitness level of those in that age range, is abysmal.

    Unless us "Older Folk," step up, we will be well and truly screwed.
