What in the world economist do you listen to who says humans only value things monetarily?
Literally all of the economists I’ve ever heard from are emphatic that humans value things aside from monetarily.
@volkris Welcome to the Internet. Sometimes there are jokes here.
Ha, or at least social media, where people aren’t always serious.
I know, it just always grates on me when I hear people who seriously believe that stuff, who really don’t understand the field of economics.
Carry on! :)
