Instead of "producer" and "consumer" I could have said "force of nature" and "hopeless stimulation junkie".
Whether or not you make anything of value to exchange with other people is not really important. How much you're consuming is also pretty irrelevant. The important thing is that your brain is in "make things happen" mode, not "stimulate me" mode.
I wasn't writing about economics, I wrote about you getting what you really want out of today and not having your attention and focus stolen.
