Narrative Deals Scam

I divide transactions into simple and narrative. A simple transaction is, for example, a taxi. You go and pay. For example, a tour is often a narrative transaction. They add some extra stuff and demand a price with X's. The point is that most transactions are simple and profitable. The paradox is that people spend most of their resources on narrative transactions, and they are not profitable. Work where the team is "family." Family where a woman promises love until the grave and your children, but leaves you without property and with child support for people who, at best, simply share half your genes. However, religion and government are not irrelevant. The question is that, in addition to the service or product, they create conditions for you where you perceive the transaction as your life story, that it somehow characterizes you as a person, is morally justified, and so on. Technically, in a simple transaction, the payment is single and clear. In a narrative transaction, there are several payments, and they are blurred. It's not hard to recognize a narrative—you sense morality. You always know and sense your true values ​​and interests. Morality, however, is imposed on top of the real pressures of society. Let's say there's labor legislation, and then there's nonsense about family. One truly limits you. The other is a scam.
