About This Quote

Knowledge, like money and muck (manure), serves us best when spread evenly. Sometimes it can be difficult to understand why this is true. After all, it’s not like knowledge is free. We have to pay for it somehow.

The answer lies in the idea of efficiency. If knowledge was spread out exactly the same way that money and manure are spread out, then nobody would take advantage of it. This is not only inefficient; it’s also unfair.

So why don’t we distribute knowledge as evenly as possible? Because people value certain areas of knowledge more than others. For example, people might value education more highly than they value business skills or computer programming. And those who have more money usually have a greater interest in investments than those who have less money do.
