Assuming the owners of those machines don't restrict the people's access to that "food and stuff"
You think Bill Gates of all people don't know that? He's just trying to gaslight us into thinking the stupid-rich gigacorporation owners like him are the solution and not the problem.
I don't know about that. Young ruthless Bill Gates was another person, older and wiser Bill Gates has already achieved richest person in the world, Forbes #1, etc etc - all that's in the rearview mirror - I believe he has awakened and realized it takes a village and he wants his legacy to reflect that
What's more likely, a complete reversal of his world view, or a good PR team and some coaching. I'm not buying the first, especially considering that his Jeffrey Epstein association came after he left MS and started running his charitable foundation.
