Just my thoughts #0617

The value must exist when both universality and scarcity coexist. Universality is a property that anyone can recognize, whereas scarcity refers to limited possession. In other words, recognition should be universal so everyone can understand it, but the rights to possess or use the object should be restricted. The universality of perception has been influenced by viral promotion, such as word of mouth and media messages, and now digital networking is taking over. Limiting physical possession and use causes scarcity. Before the digital age, this was protected by spatial limitations; however, with the widespread adoption of digital networking, encryption technology now enforces these limits. The restriction of possession and use means that a master sets the physical boundaries of the scarce object. All businesses must satisfy these two contradictions simultaneously to achieve economic benefits. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

In 2002, Nobel Prize-winning economist Daniel Kahneman conducted an experiment called the “Dictator Game”. It was 1986. One of the two subjects was given $20 to share with the other. The first condition was that the recipient could exercise his veto power if he did not like the distribution ratio, and then, the ruler ensured that the giver did not have the money. The second condition eliminated the veto. In the first condition, most people who gave money were divided in half. In the second condition, however, the giver had about 70% and shared only 30%. Most people think of fairness to vested interests between 50% and 70%. But, in some cases, even though the recipient had a veto, the giver had 90% and wanted to share only 10%. At that time, it was beneficial for the recipient to receive at least 10%, but by exercising the veto power, the giver did not have the money either. This is the moment of conflict between justice and rationality. People do not make decisions based on reason alon...

Those who value ‘justice' and ‘morality' tend to regard even a little ‘exaggerated’ expression as ‘false’ or ‘immoral.’ They also reject ‘rhetorical exaggeration' to emphasize expression. But ‘exaggeration' is only important for its ‘intention and purpose’ and is by no means ‘false’ in conveying meaning. ‘Rhetorical exaggeration’ is not a fabrication, but an emphasis. Rather, people want to prove their own integrity, and then push the ‘rhetorical exaggeration' to the one side as it is false and use that 'rhetorical exaggeration’ as a way to intimidate someone who used it is immoral. - Joseph’s "just my thoughts"
