Some people think that the latest technology is creating a divide between rich and poor.
The chief reason for this is that trendy tech tends to be expensive and is thus only affordable by the rich. The latest technology is powerful, but it also costs more, and companies have to price their products in such a way that it can over the R &D costs. 展开1 从富人角度看，同时关联穷人： 用副词自然过渡Naturally/ Inevitably/Unavoidably, new technology favors the well-offs, who can easily afford the sophisticated gadgets and smart software, which can boost their productivity and make them even richer, leaving the poor languishing in poverty and despair.
展开2从穷人角度看： Inevitably, new technology discriminates against the less well-off, who have to pay for the most essential items in life before they can indulge in the luxuries of the newest technology.
