How about we just make being a commercial pilot worth people's while instead of replacing them with robots?

Why can't the parasites in the executive board room ever just pay their employees more? "nO bOdY wAnTs tO wOrK aNyMoRe!" No, nobody wants to work in an abusive workspace for shitty pay just to get fired once the time for a raise comes around.

One solution to this would be having humans in the board room instead of parasites. Not sure who’s idea that was

Unsurprisingly, it was the parasites' idea.
