People, whether they're billionaires or are making just $80,000 a year, resent having to take care of others, even if those "others" are without a job through literally no fault of their own.
This is exacerbated by IQ, or g factor, or whatever you want to call it. A person with an 85 IQ isn't going to be able to write complex software, so "learn to code" works just fine for people sitting at maybe an IQ range of 100+. You might could be a delivery driver with an IQ around 85, but as someone said, delivery drones and self-driving vehicles are going to finish off that sector.
There's millions of jobs that could be filled, but no one wants to do them because it isn't "prestigious" or some such. We need lots more electricians, welders, carpenters, etc., but good luck convincing people to go get the training to do those jobs - some of which are extremely high paid. Underwater welders can make up to $200,000 a year.

I don't think it's about prestige for the most part. It's just that those as HARD jobs: you exert your body way beyond what is comfortable, work in uncomfortable, hazardous and unhealthy environments (heat, cold, rain, smells, noise, dust), have to be constantly careful or otherwise you can kill/injure yourself or others and, after a decade or two, can easily end up with an injury or just worn out body (joints, back etc.) which prohibits you from continuing to work. $200k is worth it, but $60k, which is most people will be making, is probably not.

People aren't going to have much of a choice soon. It'll be that or live a miserable life by way of having little-to-no money. Or I guess the third option of whine constantly on the Internet, but that's already happening.
