In the most charitable light, his statement had merit. Same way as there is a resource allocation issue with cars - the vast majority of them sit around for the vast majority of the time.

If tech companies hadn't spent the last 30 years aggressively fucking everyone over for every penny they could get, maybe we would be more inclined to take the charitable view rather than see his statements as yet another attempt to add a fence and charge a toll.

But think of the shareholders!
