The Law of Reciprocity or Social Responsibility

Haven't posted in a while as our resources have been spread thiiiiinnnnn. This had to be posted though. It exhibits a view that could change the world. I don't know what this law is called, as it is interpretative, but it is incredible nonetheless. I read it on a Starbucks cup:

If you've got a dollar and you spend twenty-nine cents on a loaf of bread, you've got seventy-one cents left. But if you've got seventeen grand and you spend twenty-nine cents on a loaf of bread, you've still got seventeen grand. There's a math lesson for you.
