      Like, we bought and sold spice… For money.

      People obviously wanted spice and paid for it.

      That’s how trade and industry work. We didn’t just bring back exotic rocks.

        It’s good to read Marx books, but history books are better. That way you can see examples of how socialism always fails due to human corruption.

      Don’t get high off your own supply… Still true, we import and export more as we consume.
