While your efforts may have been sincere, claiming success due to those efforts is misleading. The Law of Equivalent Exchange suggests that behind my achievements lie the sacrifices of others, known or unknown to me. We should approach discussions of success with humility and avoid glorification. Neglecting the Law of Equivalent Exchange often leads to the onset of corruption. When considering the sacrifices made by others, we ought to refrain from celebrating our successes based solely on our dedication and hard work. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
The exclusive power of the state to print money, rather than that of private individuals, creates a situation where we all must operate within a limited amount of currency. This limitation implies that because wealth is quantified and acquired through money, whenever one person gains money, another must lose an equivalent amount. It’s similar to the fact that when I settle my bank loan, another person has to go bankrupt. The opposite holds true as well. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
