    Well they’re not as valuable because they didn’t have to be dug out the ground. The amount of work that goes into something is what makes it valueable. That’s why I only buy the toughest to reach diamonds from the most brutal mines in Africa, now those are valuable!

      Just realized that was satire, but anyway I already started writing so I’m posting it lol.

      Labor theory of value was outdated to centuries ago.

      Labor sets a minimum value when stuff is in demand, but without demand the value can be zero despite how much effort was put into it.
