Indeed.

On the plus side, if there really is no value to labour, then farm work must have been fully automated along with all the other roles.

On the down side, rich elites have historically had a very hard time truly empathising with normal people and understanding their needs even when they care to attempt it, so it is very possible that a lot of people will starve in such a scenario despite the potential abundance of food.
