Mermaids don't understand why humans value pearls, given what they are.
And humans don't understand why mermaids value soda can tabs, given what they are.
There's thriving industries for artificial alternatives of both.
It's quite ridiculous of course. That's why sensible creatures deal in souls.
Sure, it's a renewable resource, but souls can't be faked and finding one that has aged AND has remained untarnished?
Utterly priceless.

@lemememeringue That's my Actual, Real life lately.
Like no joke, I've spent the last year or so astral projecting and having friendly but gigantic unicorns crashing into my headspace from the UK.
@Cyborgneticz A lot of our world leaders match that description
Meta, lyricsposting
To all my friends who are just like me
Another cog in the big machine
Another victim of the industry
It just don't mean nothing to me
To all the lost who have had enough
To everybody that has given up
Life is tough, are you tough enough?
It just don't mean nothing to me
Got a belly full of that pesticide
Yeah, ain't it cool? We were born to die
Hallelujah! Chica chica ride
Gonna fool ya with them white lines
To all my friends who've had enough
If you should fall, we'll pick you up
To all my friends who've had it rough
If you should fall, we'll pick you up
We'll pick you up!

If it's your considered belief that some people literally deserve to die of starvation or exposure or something because they aren't good enough at *making money*:

@Teryl_Pacieco This was basically my upbringing.
"I don't wanna kidnap princesses!" whined the little dragon.
"Then you needn't," replied the little dragon's father.
"But grampa said."
"Grampa is very old, and things were different in his time," the little dragon's father explained, "So if you'd rather kidnap princes, you have your mother's and my support."
"But I don't wanna kidnap ANYBODY."
The larger dragon paused, puzzling this fact.
"You... could develop Ransomware?"
"Ew!"
