You don't see a pattern of employment that comes from a balanced society?
Really? Great work, well thought out post.

A necessary drain in a lot of cases but still a drain

I could probably go down to the warf and buy a salmon directly off a fisherman for a lot cheaper (probably illegal though) than I could after it goes through the various middlemen and government regulators. I'm not saying these people aren't necessary in a modern society but they aren't the primary producers and some could be considered a drain with little redeeming value. I think being a Forest Ranger is a cool job.
