Lmao what are you talking/coping about? What happened to carriage drivers is pretty well-documented. Maybe ask one of these AI chatbots, they will summarize it for you.

Thank you very much good sir for your kind advice.

I, in turn, suggest looking out of the window: modern carriage drivers are called truck drivers and their number is edging towards 10M worldwide.

Now add to this rail carriage drivers, sea carriage drivers and air carriage drivers. Years of progress changed the way you feed your "horse" and made reins somewhat more complex, but fundamentally nothing changed.

And that's thriving by what measure?

No employment stability, no benefits, no health insurance, no vacations, at complete mercy of basically a single company.

Yeah, thriving.
