how is it a good point? it’s just communist nonsense.
here:
A takes 20 min when you do it (Good)
A takes 60 min when I do it. (Bad)
B takes 60 min when you do it. (Bad)
B takes 20 min when I do it. (Good)
So we are good and bad at different things.
You and I work separately.
You do your A (Good) & your B (Bad)
I do my A (Bad) & my B (Good).
We get 2A & 2B done in 80 min.
You and I work together.
You do your A (Good) & my A (Good)
I do my B (Good) & your B (Bad)
We get 2A & 2B done in 40 min.
You and I live in a Marxist regime.
You are assigned to B (Bad)
I am assigned to A (Bad)
We get 2A & 2B done in 120 min and then report to central authority +120 min.
See? Working together creates a comparative advantage. We make more stuff together, so we produce more, and everyone can have more, at a better a price, so quality of life goes up.
The professor pretended that an employee brings is good at A & B. Not true. The employee is good at A (Labor) but not at B (Marketing, Accounting, Organising).
Everyone loses when the employee does everything himself (A + B). Likewise when the employer does A + B, everyone loses. No comparative advantage.
