[127] Hans: The real basis of wealth. Tesa gives two alternative definitions of wealth in
[126]: either it is whatever makes
a person happy, or it is something that is considered
valuable. Both of these definitions are subjective, wealth
is defined by the attitudes which people have towards the
things that constitute wealth. A non-subjective definition
of wealth would be for example: “knowledge and use-values
which allow people to do things which they couldn't do
before.” Here wealth is not defined by what people think or
feel about something, but by what they are enabled to do by
this thing. |
