Why are we building this world? What are we thinking?

Quite simple: because if we don't want to end up under the bus ourselves, we need to throw the underskilled masses there first and try to buy room to breathe.

We can't save them, but maybe we can save ourselves (maybe).

Pretty cynical viewpoint. I can see where you're coming from, but by saying "bus" are you implying a zero-sum world?
