That's why we have money - so people can say things like "No it isn't, because if it were people would have given you billions for it."

  Money is not a panacea for valuation. If it were, then ending climate change would be much more profitable.

    It's true there's nothing perfect under the sun. But I think the financial judgement of MSFT vs some guy's hobby project is pretty sound, and in general price signals work pretty well as a message to producers.

      I agree. However, fatal errors within the money system (i.e. climate change, cyclical poverty) must be addressed, which is what this whole thread is about.

        Well, I would have to look at pc86's app first.

          I thought it was pretty obvious I was being sarcastic. Anyone who thinks their todo app is as important as a multi billion dollar company employing about 125,000 people has serious mental issues.
