    Lot of typewriter repair jobs got ended by the advent of computers but we didn’t let that stop us, we shouldn’t protect obvious economic inefficiencies like this just to reward already affluent people

      I’m just saying that one thing most politicians do not want to be seen to do is get rid of any jobs. This is why it’s hard to get traction with it - it’ll hurt them politically directly(people think nationalized health care is worse or bad), it’ll hurt their campaigns (cause contributions), and it’ll hurt them on “the economy” because they “killed lots of good jobs”.
