So?
How does someone in the market place get "an upper hand"?
Honeyed barbs, perhaps.

I don't think persons retire from OF status -- it's an
appointment for life, or at least until Alzheimer's doth
one's neurons part. (I am not asserting you are one.)

Ray and Chief Dan George have described communities that had more
benevolent invisible hands than those of 'free trade'. Actually they
seem to me to resemble the early christian communities that formed
shortly after the death of Christ. There was no private property and all
was SHARED not traded. Trade, from my experience, usually involves
trying to get the 'upper hand'
Take care,
Honey
ps are we trading barbs or sharing affections?
