\"\"JK Rowling is a billionaire. Did she become a billionaire by stealing \$1 from a billion people? Did she win, where others had to lose? No. She created a product that enriched our lives. When we buy her books, we give up \$20 and get a book, she gets \$20. Have I lost, where she won? No. My life is better, and I\'ve given up that money, because the book was worth \*more\* than \$20 to me. In markets where people are free to trade the product of their labours, the transactions are win-win, or dont occur.\"\"\
