      Very true.  However there has never been, nor will there ever
    be absolute economic efficiency or fairness.  As such a ballance
    must be sought that everyone can live with, a very difficult
    task to achieve and maintain.

These days, we have a lot of economic efficiency in production and
very little fairness.  As a result, lots of production goes into
activities that are harmful in the long term, and most of the world's
people get no benefit from all the production.

Clearly we need increased concern with fairness.
