But I did not assert the opposite. I really do not know what the point is that you are making here. Perhaps I'm not well enough acquainted with Austrian capital theory. In that case the investor is called a land speculator. Their notions are frequently way off the mark.
Lumber is a resource.
Actually, though, this may be where your confusion lies. I was unaware that I had concluded any such thing. I still don't understand how land speculation makes things better for society. If I'm mistaken, please, explain why. Well, my inability to explain my points does not make them invalid.
