A lot of services will be either free or almost free.
that will be very good for them.

So we'll have a lot more billionaires, people with pretty small firms.
I think the big losers, and this does pain me, so if I'm a member of this class, it's just the upper, upper middle class
The people who go to good schools and they think they can walk into careers in law, consulting, finance that are more or less automatic.

They'll become partner.
They'll take home $2 million a year, some kind of home in the Connecticut suburbs story.
