Farms or Tech? What is better?

Its obvious from an economic standpoint, so I looked up from a security standpoint what crops Spain produces and it seems to be non-essentials. So its purely for export purposes.

Tech will win if all is rational, but people have a soft heart for the status quo. Those poor farmers, what a sad story. I imagine they can probably rally the population against their own interests with the correct moral coating and maybe create a faux crisis of raising the prices of food by hoarding for a few months.



> seems to be non-essentials

I'd love to hear what non-essential food is less important that fricking AI data centers.

> its purely for export purposes.

Erm, yes? Spain is one of the main food producers of the EU, so that tracks. How is that an argument for anything?


Good luck eating data centres.
