I, Pencil (1958)
I am always fascinated by the fact that in a remote village in India I am eating with a disposable spoon which I deem cheaper than wasting 10 seconds washing a steel spoon.<p>That disposable spoon comes from a local shop which buys it from a distributor in a factory 100 miles away who buys plastic raw material from a seller 1000 miles way who brings the crude from middle east (10K miles) to make that plastic. Someone has built Oil rig deep into ocean spending billions of dollars to extract that crude oil.<p>More importantly people of all castes religions races are working to achieve this none of whom have any special love for each other yet everyone benefits.
