I will do it soon. It is crazy, to be honest. I am not sure where we are headed. I needed to pass people I knew for a fact that they used AI and did not write anything themselves, but there were no grounds to fail them on, besides the detection that they used AI. Such a sad world.

That's terrible, and now you must find your niche so that you no longer have to do this. A sad and money driven world my friend.
Sadly the way of the modern world, everything costs money, totally detached from what things actually cost, and everyone wants to make more and more money from essentially a finite source.
The way of the modern world is to hold and to milk captive audiences, as that is a very profitable system. Everything continues going up in prices, and the poor continue to get poorer.
Such is life.
The poor continue to grow poorer, the rich richer, and trying to stay afloat in this system without jumping on others' heads is getting so much harder. Buying cheap often means exploiting finite resources (cutting down forests to farm cheaper) or exploiting labour (unfair payment to those working in bad conditions). Buying more expensive mostly means putting money in the pockets of rich folk who invest in the cheaper stuff to make even more money. It seems like our society is really a lose-lose battle, the only option is to do as much as possible from your own position (grow as much food yourself if you can and share with others and so on).
Oh yes, and you explained the situation very accurately. Self-sustainability remains a dream, as many productive farms become dormant after they are handed over, and the latest story is that we are starting to enter a food insecurity problem in the country. I read a report by SAHR stating that thousands of tons of edible food get dumped into the landfills. Surely a plan can be made for this to be distributed to the poor areas.
!BEER
This is the problem right, why are we not giving perfectly edible food away? Because it actually costs more than just to dump it. We drove past kilometres on kilometres of citrus farms when we visited the Drakensberg mountains, and it was just sad to see how much of the citrus just gets dumped because they are not in perfect export conditions. I just wonder how bad it really is, because we hoi polloi on the ground cannot see everything that goes on...
Well, look at it like this. Should the edible food and the citrus be donated for free to the poor, then the farmers and shops sales will drop, as thousands won't have to buy the products.
A crazy world in the forever hunting for profits.

A crazy world in the forever hunting for profits, to cover the costs.
