Money is not the best or the only motivator. Maybe (ignoring the fact that ours is the age of trash, one of the things that should be solved first) those jobs you've mentioned are in fact essential and the only thing it shows is that the way how incentives are set is artificial and has nothing to do with the real utility of the job. Making majority of population to work their whole lives although there are (will be) ways to automate it completely just because we need few dirty & greasy jobs done is not a stupidity? And I for one don't believe that doctors and nurses are in it only for the money, there are many examples of people choosing jobs and risking their lives for others, no money are worth that. People (can) act out of their heart, not just out of their greed. It's a complicated topic, with many unknowns and many things that would have to change, but insisting that status quo is the best way to handle things ... that seems like blindness to me.
