[96] Hippie: The value of a commodity does not increase if it is made
by a slow or inept laborer because its use value does not
increase. A factory-made glass that will hold twelve ounces
of water is just as useful as an identical glass that was
handblown by a glassblower. The factory glass was made in a
fraction of the time that it took the glassblower. If each
one is equally useful, I would be foolish to pay more for the
handcrafted glass. The glassblower knows this and must price
his glasses accordingly. |
