When we see a simple barter transaction, it’s clear how both sides profit. If we see a more contemporary exchange, where currency (which has no intrinsic value) is used instead, it is easy to lose sight of the mutual profitability of a free exchange. But everyone gains in a fair trade. That’s what makes production work.

I am enjoying the balanced approach to this topic.
