I got into hot water with a couple other nostriches when I quoted Jesus Christ's second greatest command, "to love thy neighbor," and said it ought to apply to trade and commerce as well 🤣 It's true, reciprocity itself predates Christianity, but I claim it perfects that natural law.
It's the difference between doing good to others as long as they're good in return and actually desiring that the other benefits.
