Start a company and create jobs

Edit: Even if you can't hire poor people, you probably will need services from them, like cleaning for your buildings, construction of them, etc. It is more about the implying effects than the direct effects.

Hm. I don't mean to start a political argument but I'm not sure I agree with this sentiment. I completely see how starting a company can be justified as helping people by providing jobs. But I don't know how reasonable it is to say that starting a tech company will help impoverished people.
