Yep. And as soon as they can GMO some chimps into enough intelligence, patience, and docility I'm sure the jobs will go to slave armies of them. Watch out, here comes The Planet of the Apes.
Conquest of the Planet of the Apes
The opening titles set the film in "North America – 1991." Armando (Ricardo Montalbán) explains that in 1983 (ten years after the end of Escape from the Planet of the Apes, which was set two years ahead of its theatrical release date), a disease killed the world's cats and dogs, leaving humans with no pets. To replace them, humans began keeping apes as household pets. Realizing the apes' capacity to learn and adapt, humans train them to perform household tasks. By 1991, American culture is based on ape slave labor (just as Cornelius described would happen in the previous film). It is also suggested that the North America of the 1990s is at least partly a police state, as apes and humans are being watched at all times.
The ultimate "race to the bottom."
