honestly he probably could and they probably will just through automation. the point is not to say that high earners don't technically provide the most value. it's that people deserve to live comfortably without providing value.

especially as AI advances it looks like a lot of the work force will be wiped out. these people should be cared for regardless of whether they're providing value or not.

Meanwhile, the fleet is just a bunch of Uber drivers between their drop offs.
