“Since man does not create physical matter, those who handle material objects in the production process are not producers in that sense. Economic benefits result from the transformation of matter in form, location, or availability (intellectually or temporally). It is these transformations that create economic benefits valued by consumers, and whoever arranges such transformations contributes to the value of things, whether his hands actually come into contact with physical objects or not.” MenDoeMatterHandsFormValuesProcessResultsEconomicObjectsMaterialsBenefitsTransformationProductionsHandleContactProducersConsumersLocationAvailability Author:Thomas Sowell

“My position is that the rate should align with the level of economic development. Because it is always about a balance, a balance of interests, and it should reflect this balance. A balance between those who sell something across the border and those who benefit from a low rate, as well as a balance between the interests of those who buy, who need the rate to be higher. A balance between national producers, for example, agricultural producers who are interested in it.” NeedsShouldWellsInterestLevelsEconomicExamplePositionDevelopmentBalanceHigherBenefitsLowsSellsRateProducersBordersEconomic Development Author:Vladimir Putin
