      But you are using the human resource of labour to gather it. We use our bodies to produce all goods and services. I take your point, I just don’t think most people consider basic survival tasks to be a profession. A profession is probably best considered to be the first abstraction layer that allows you to do an activity other than those basic tasks to survive.
