Looking at your linkedin you do mostly contract work, so I'm not sure what you know exactly about what you are talking about?

People churn through employment based on ambition, boredom and opportunity. In 20+ years I've never met someone who stayed at a company strictly for the benefits. I'm sure those people exist, but my guess is that it's not the benefits thats keeping them there, it's their personal need for security and stability regardless of the offerings. These people are likely not ambitious nor risk takers by nature.

And then the Ayn Rand being your "favorite thinker" made me throw the whole of your argument into the rubbish bin on the merit of that alone.
