I think it’s selfish. How many of those jobs could have gone to someone who actually needs one? It’s essentially job hoarding. If you’re that much of a productive genius, why don’t you (the people with multiple well-paying jobs, not you personally) volunteer or start your own business and do something to actually improve the world instead of just hoarding wealth.
This analogy doesn’t really work. The point of going to a child’s concert isn’t to hear good music, it’s to celebrate and encourage the child for attempting to learn something new. Nobody in that audience is relying on the musical accuracy of the children.
A better analogy would be a professional orchestra that fires half its members and replaces them with inexperienced children. The orchestra mentions this change to no one, but continues selling tickets for $200. The audience rightly expects to hear accurate, professional music, because that’s what was advertised. But what they get instead is the quality of an elementary school concert.
Humans have always understood our experience through stories and myths. Literally every civilization throughout history has them. It’s the people who refuse to consume any fiction that I don’t understand. Even when a story is entirely fictional, surely there is still meaning in metaphor and juxtaposition and human understanding to be found.
