Give me a break with focusing on the "eventually one becomes a millionaire" bit.
How much are our bosses, Musk, Bezos, Zuck, etc. making? in Steinbeck's lifetime, CEOs made "only" 42x of what the average worker made. Today, we're up to 120x. I recognize that we have it better than people working in a cannery, but this is exploitation all the same. We're getting paid just enough to not revolt, but nowhere near what we're worth.
