Or maybe it's that many people who did those things and became successful with it are from privileged positions that allowed them to do such things...

And so if we lifted people into positions where they didn't feel like their basic needs would be taken away if they didn't work some job making money then they could experiment and do things that were less transactional... But until we have that Star Trek future - we gonna be transactional.
