Yeah but if I program a drone swarm to automate this process it’s for the greater good — more apples for everyone!
And I only charge a tiny subscription for access to all my drone-managed orchards, you can eat as many apples as you want. But don’t steal any and start your own orchard or I sue.
All the people who care for the trees and pick the apples have lost their job while an apple became nearly worthless, but without a job it‘s still unaffordable.
Replace your drones with China or India and you have the current situation in the US.
Apple farmers go out of business so you lose the people who create new varieties.
