> lays bare the net economic value of all our bullshit jobs.

This was already obvious, the more important question is what are we (collectively, society & our governments) going to do about it?

We (should have) already known most of our jobs were bullshit jobs, especially white collar jobs. The difference is now we might have something coming that will eliminate the bullshit jobs.

But society will always need bullshit jobs or the whole system collapses. Not everyone can go dig ditches, so what do we do?

Clean the bed pans of boomer retirees. And pay into a collapsing social security to finish off the wealth transfer.
