The Economics of it all

What are human relationships? Can they be quantified or are they qualitative? Can love be measured?

The basis of consumer behaviour in economic theory is utility which is the want satisfying capacity of a commodity.

Is it true that relationships can be commodified? What is the value of a person to another? To what extent can a person utilize another?

At every point in life there are choices to make. Then is it the quality or the quantity that matters?

Can you choose friendship based on utility?
Can a person be chosen based on the money he possesses?
Will you choose a friend only if he can benefit you in the future?

The questions are numerous but at the end of the day it boils down to have we come to the level of economising our feelings?


You might not get a thing out of it but as i say the primary purpose has been solved.
