But how do we compare the value generated for others to the value they consume? Considering value is subjective and not always monetary.
If I grow an apple and trade it for an orange, the apple can make the other party happy, but how can we know the orange I got didn't make me even happier, making me less valuable?
I think you need to fix the frame of reference, the beholder of value, for this question to even make sense.
