If they could do to the price of space launch what they've done to the
price of e.g plastic toys, every one would benefit. Apart from the
existing manufacturers.

Except for those working there at below subsistance rates in unsafe
work places for too many hours a day.

No they benefit more than most, as they now have better jobs than they
would otherwise have.

If the company making the rockets is a western multinational, they
will benefit even more. Third World workers are always able to exploit
western employers (for higher wages and better conditions) more than
local employers.
