Very true. Note, however, that this would also increase the cost of the outputs of those jobs to consumers. In your case the cost of laundry would probably increase to the point where it wouldn't make sense for a lot of people anymore. It's a complicated web of job loss, job creation, wage increases, price increases, automation, and several other factors all bound up together.

It should at least be given a shot, especially when we have the means - automation - to do it somewhat cheaply.
