I wonder if even Cook goes far enough, with the likes of this kind of thing: "..since our societies turned everything into a commodity that could be bought and sold in the marketplace. " Yet I seem to recall that the great majority of land in England, for example, is a commodity that never enters the marketplace. Vast, interlocking inherited estates are a thing, both real and virtual. Especially in countries that no longer have inheritance taxation to speak of. - Regards, Shyaku
