A batch of the best highlights from what Jophin's read, .
The market decides which abilities we should harness, while our needs are transformed in view of what we can buy. Many of the abilities that we could develop—if we had the time to lead our lives—are discarded because they are not deemed to be profitable, and many needs are engineered to make us purchase more commodities rather than to provide satisfaction.
