That's where the definition of "value" gets blurry. If in your analogy you use the hole I dug for raising plants, does that mean you created 20 dollars worth of value? It's uncertain, neither "yes" or "no&

Actually, some parts of the economy are pretty much the same, do you know that people create fake scarcity all the time? Colanta, one of the big milk companies in the world actually throws tons of milk when it suits them, why? to avoid low

This is a very common logical fallacy. Because the concept of "right" itself was created by society itself thanks to deterministic events, to be used in practical applications to judge and be judged, where that judgement is itself

Slightly related: the adult business is being rejected by Google play and the app store. I think some big co should sell a modified android phone (like telcos do) with a preinstalled adult app store. Plus it could work for other adult mater

I would recommend against using multiple languages for the plugin interface. It just becomes a mess, the Sublime Text way of using Python and Python only for all the plugin system makes it extremely clean and extremely powerful. In your cas

Thanks for speaking up. Doctors work between their boundaries, that includes giving medication based on symptoms profiling and comparing those with previous cases or just their medical training, unfortunately that sometimes backfires again

Google is just a middleman between you and webpages, Facebook is just a middleman between you and sharing your stuff. Everything is a middleman.

Ok, but I'm talking about freedom in general. For example you can't discriminate doing things like hiring white people only, even if you are not in the government. So there is definitely some limits about what you can do and say b

Which means that the less opinions you express the more likely is for you to be accepted by the community as CEO of a company. How ironic, freedom of speech tampered by those alleging being depraved of basic rights.

Many people go into "self-destruction mode" without needing any drug at all. Usually triggered by tragedies or just some phases of life, like middle life crisis and puberty. Plus many times drug addiction is a reaction, not a caus

Republicans are usually against giving "things for free", so connecting this issue only with liberal capitalism is a bit misleading, because it's a wider opinion than that. But anyway, I do agree with your sentiment.
