  Question 10: Name some elements of wealth which even in modern capitalist society cannot be bought and sold.   
  [44] Vansmack: Question number ten asks to name some elements of wealth which even in modern capitalist society cannot be bought and sold. I believe that some of the most important assets to society cannot be bought and sold. Physical traits and intelligence are very useful assets and yet have nothing to do with money. As a matter of fact having high intelligence and a high literacy rate can definitely strengthen a country economically. For instance the most powerful and best off economic nations in the world have a high intelligence and a high literacy rate. The right forms of systems have been set up enabling them to get a high level of education therefore making their countries stronger all together. While money can be used as a tool for wealth, in order to have total wealth there must be someone capable of using the tool.   
  Hans: See [41]. and my comments there. For a different twist on the relationship between education and national wealth see also [64]
