I bet they could get more to do it if they paid more. You could give out a lot of raises with $875 million.
they could, but i think initially like requiring to apply to the training school, and then there is a waitlist, and you have to train in okhloma specifically is more than discouraging people.
A couple more schools across the breadth of the country a decade ago would have done more today than $100 billion of AI ATC would do today.
Which is a low bar admittedly, but the point has to be made.
