this is literally the same as growing money on trees

I think you need to look up what "literally" means.

Mining is regulated by the code. No matter how hard anyone mines, no matter how many, there will only be the same amount of bitcoins per block. Period. Only a fixed amount too.

I have to go work and earn my dollars, not just grow it at home on a PC, massive difference.

Speaking from experience, running a mining farm is a full time job. Harder than one at times. There's a reason I left it behind for a normal job.
