A trade is the only win-win interaction

Sacrifices

• to others’s needs,
• or of others to one’s needs,

aren’t rational approaches to life. They only create parasitic relationships, which don’t improve the lives of anybody in the long run. It’s a win-lose solution. And in time it will necessarily become lose-lose. Trades on the other hand create win-win situations the improve the lives of all people involved.
