Nor does investing in silver, or day trading, or charging interest, or option calls. yet this is how capitalism works. We do not live in a society where value is limited to tangible goods produced.

We're using Value a bit diffetently here, Value isn't necessarily equal to price.

Actually we're using it quite the same as I wasn't referring to price either.
