Create Value

From Adam Gurri, via Cafe Hayek.

The point is, our goal should never be to “create jobs”. Our goal should be to enable people to contribute something valued by other people. The value is the point, not the work. If someone finds a way to provide value to hundreds of millions of people and it requires no more effort from them than batting their eyelashes, that would be a win.

It is all about value.  Value is why raising the minimum wage does harm, not good, and why we need to put less power in the hands of the likes of SEIU, not more.
