Have you ever considered the possibility that you made a wrong turn in cyberspace?

Labor is a commodity. It has value that may be traded or bartered; or stolen if Socialists are involved. It always has and always will. Your argument is akin to saying that lumber isn't a commodity because lumber comes from trees and "trees are special".

[John Filson]

Trees don't have souls.

Your argument is akin to saying that lumber isn't a commodity because lumber comes from trees and "trees are special".

The human labor is not a material object which can be transported and stored. If the living trees had to be directly involved in the process of production as aware beings they would be special!

In your analogy the lumber is analogical to the parts of human body. So maybe you had in mind the transplants? Certainly not the labor.

You may claim that some tree is your father. Please don't claim the same for the rest of us.

Your inability to see humans as distinct from trees is a clear indicator that one should not take your "thoughts" seriously.

And the same applies to Walter Williams, by the way...
