If we’re talking about value, what’s the value of someone who creates a new social media app? Angry Birds? Is there value in electronic games, or isn’t that really a destructive innovation that should have negative value?
How do we value things, and why? Is it rational? Do we value things more highly if they give us temporary pleasure, or do we value things more highly if the provide a greater benefit to society? Capitalism has some major drawbacks in this respect, but how else should we value things?
