Probably quite a few, but don’t let the fact they’re bullshit jobs fool you into thinking they don’t matter. The middle manager making $100K a year is spending that money on food, clothing, and other items that are produced by people who don’t have bullshit jobs.

You’re right. These bullshit job kinda need to exist as people need to eat, and that’s difficult without a steady income. We really do need to start talking seriously about a UBI.
