Labor Day Philosophy

Real wealth is created, as much as anything can be created, only by labor.
Money is not real wealth. Money, other than the physical thing itself,
only represents real wealth. It is an abstraction. All of money's worth
must have the wealth of labor, the actual act of work, to have meaning.

An economy can not have form without labor. Each economic theory,
principle and system are dependent upon labor first before any other
scheme can take action.

The real value of labor is directly proportional to what that labor
produces. Real value is not necessarily the amount of money or reward
given to that labor. Real value starts with the labor that is necessary
for the act of life and for living life. Life needs labor, life is labor
before all else.

This is Labor Day. This should never be forgot.
