Although, just a little asterisk and footnote moment, it is technically possible to gain some level of wealth, like really really upper middle class, through means that are not directly predatory. Incredibly unlikely, but possible.
I’d argue that even very wealthy people who actually do something, like pro athletes, are getting paid correctly. If you’re one of the best in the world at what you do, then you should get paid a lot. It’s just that the exploiter class is still taking the lions share of the value they create… And “entertainment value” is dubious at best imo. But the exploiter class pays well for people to keep us distracted… I guess: don’t hate the players, hate the game-owners
There are some professions that are very well compensated because they’re still so hard to hire and retain for, but I’d argue they’re still undervalued on the whole for what they return for investors.
Also all of us in the global North are supported by a chain of exploitation of labour and nature that wraps around the entire globe, which isn’t our individual fault, but is part of the reason for our relative prosperity.

You used to be correct. Now, the IT have been traded for dice of errors. There is no correct result for anyone, though a few of the result will appear to be correct long enough to sucker the viral tricking the trade of humans for AI.

Money is the Talisman of illusion that tricks the actual giving all real value for it"s essence of being the opposite…
I’m not sure what you mean, could you explain please?
I don’t think it’s incredibly unlikely working in IT in the USA.

Good point
Thanks I’m pretty proud of that sentence
