this is great. We should live in a low trust cultural milieu where every interaction is reduced to it’s economic base as quickly as possible. After all, culture is entirely based on asserting one’s economic rights at all times. It’s theft to do otherwise, and theft was a capital crime at common law. Whatever makes us more atomized and fearful is good. Anything that involves relying on anything other than economic transactions is bad. Just stay at home, consume product, wait for next product, and don’t interact like people who live in a society, ever. Let’s take an interesting way to analyze interactions (economics) and turn it into a fetish! What could go wrong? Yes, sarcasm.
