Did I miss the part where they discuss the economics of having a larger worker pool? like how that would affect existing workers? that seems like an enormous question to not address fully.

As a butthurt American I only have one real gripe with what you said - our roads aren't free. Our taxes pay for them. I think we need to change this mentality and acknowledge that our taxes going to something else useful is actually a net good - not 'welfare.'

My guess is that the market for high quality software engineering simply isn't there at scale. A lot of what we use day to day really just scrapes by the threshold of passable. So that's the bar they need to clear. If your customers are content paying you for 80% reliability, why pay for engineers who can deliver 5 9s?
