I've used makers vs. takers rhetoric, but as far as I see it, the takers are the aristocrats at the top of society.
As far as I'm concerned, the bus drivers are clearly in the maker class. They provide a service that the city requires. They make things that need to happen (people getting from one point to another) happen.
The takers are the assholes who provide no service to society but get rich on their connections-- the VCs lining their pockets with the yield of multiple liquidation preferences.
