Baker's Story

The Baker's Story is a story in Rocket Scientists' Guide to Money and the Economy[1] used to teach about the toxic dynamic of accumulation made possible by the abstraction of Labor into Money. The story follows the exploits (and exploitation) of Joe the Baker as he first learns unfair trading practices that enrich him at the expense of all others, and then learns to obfuscate, obscure, and enhance his unfair trading practices in order to enhance his own personal wealth and power.
