"It is not only a sign of respect to give, but it also helps grow your economy and societies as a whole."
I agree with you wholeheartedly on this because when I learned in one of my management classes this semester that when you give someone a compliment, they can't help but like you because you are complimenting them. Same goes for giving someone a gift. When you give them the gift even if they don't like you there will at least be a small part of them that's appreciative and likes the fact you gave them a gift. Another good example I have from giving helping with business is when I do a little more for people and give more than they expected they always appreciate it and sometimes they give me more money right there, but what's even more valuable is they give me more business or they give me a good referral which is the number 1 way to get more business, I agree that's what capitalism was initially meant to be, an interworking system where each person plays a role to serve other roles for the people to where it all works in a harmonious balance, but people always get in the way of themselves and are greedy and things get messy sometimes. I think a big reason for gift giving to is just the symbolism of relationships and that you support someone is why people appreciate them. You're telling them you appreciate them and value your relationship in a way or trying to nurture it in a way. Specialization is huge reason for our economy because we couldn't have all the things we have available to us on a daily basis without people specializing in those products that we buy every day. All the different food options and all the houses. Specialization has also allowed us to advance much quicker because people don't have to worry about their necessities and they can innovate things and processes. I personally would hate any other form of government because it would probably practice more control over people, but maybe I'm wrong, America is one of the leading countries in incarceration rates, but I also feel like America is that way because we run our prison systems like a business too which is crazy to me.
