Sorry, I had a typo in there. Meant lower labor costs means savings to companies and subsequently more profit.<p>The free market, even in a society empowered by technology to not require competition, will dictate that poor people will forever be poor. Even today, people starve in America, and there&#x27;s no sign that that will change. A lot of startups are working with drones or data science to improve farm yields, which I think is cool and useful, but ultimately is pointless if we can&#x27;t ensure that our overabundance of food doesn&#x27;t make it to peoples&#x27; stomachs.
