Society can kiss my ass, I'll reward me based on what I think my value and merit is.

Yes, I'm a big fan of a meritocratic society.

Its evolutionary in basis. In theory, society and people reward those who they think offer the greatest benefits to themselves or society at large. It is the reason why we have these big rewards for achievements, and we write down the important and influential people who contributed to our history and culture down in our history books.Society is just fashion with really drawn out seasons. Why should the most fashionable be rewarded over the less fashionable?
The OP is too open ended to be answered.
Define what you mean by "reward."
How is a person's "value" and "merit" to be measured and by who?
There is no free market. The market is dictated by those with most money. Everyone else has to struggle against that.

Well I think so. You only have to count the great little companies that get swallowed by the giants.There is no free market. The market is dictated by those with most money. Everyone else has to struggle against that.

So obvious it's passing strange that it seems to need to be stated, isn't it?

Society, no. The market, yes.

And it's not a matter of what you think you should be rewarded nor what you think of your value or merit. It's how free people making voluntary decisions value you. It's the market that will determine your reward. What you think is irrelevant.
Is this not obvious? What am I missing?

I find it amusing that you use the phrase "brevity of your remarks" to (I'm guessing here) try to discount eflatminor's post, when your post, framing the topic, is no less brief. A broad topic calls for a broad response, IMHO.Society, no. The market, yes.

Given the scope of the matter, the brevity of your remarks makes it quite difficult to with certainty say.
