To realize added value, production activities must occur. In other words, added value arises from production activities. Production involves bringing into existence things that did not previously exist in the world. This can be accomplished by combining existing items to create new ones or by processing raw materials into new products. Production includes physical manufacturing, knowledge generation, and service creation. Wealth represents the accumulation of added value. Consequently, to become wealthy, one must be productive. However, value is determined through relative comparison. A product can only be exchanged if it can be priced, and added value can only be actualized by exchanging this product. This process is referred to as commerce. In other words, it is known as a transaction. Through trade, humanity distributes this added value. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Approximately 85% to 90% of the global population is right-handed, while the remainder is left-handed, with very few being ambidextrous. Throughout history, horses have served as a primary mode of transportation for humans. Typically, right-handed individuals mount a horse from the left side, relying on their right hand to grasp the saddle for support. If a person approaches the horse from the edge of a busy road on the left, this naturally orients the horse’s movement toward the left side of the road. Consequently, human anatomical tendencies have influenced the direction of road traffic. This practice led to the establishment of the left-hand shipping rule for vehicles, ships, planes, and even space shuttles. Thus, our civilization on Earth represents a legacy shaped by human anatomical traits. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
