A Reddit post received a flurry of comments from users, with some agreeing that there's no difference whether you make "20k, or 200k a year," while others disagreed.

"If you're making $300k a year, you have more in common with someone making minimum wage than you do with Elon [Musk, the founder of Tesla and other corporations]. There are people that walk among us that have so much wealth, that even generations of mismanagement can't squander it. These folks you speak of are not those folks."

    The quote in the OP and this are both true. Unfortunately I think this take is what matters most in the end. Being paid PMC salaries is basically a bribe to keep those with tiny modicums of power from getting unruly in the imperial core.
