I had a leaky tire on Saturday (deflated, but not down to the rim.) I took it to the little tire shop down the street from the office. The guy told me it would be ten bucks to fix it.
$10.00
HECK YES. +1 each for Specialization, Free Markets, Competition, Commodification of Service, and Division of Labor. If I had to patch my own tire, I could have done it, but it would have taken me several hours, some tool and supply purchases, and maybe two attempts. There's just no way I WOULDN'T pay ten dollars for someone else to take care of all of this for me. Maybe if my hobby was repairing tires. But it isn't.
