There are different concepts of value, the most important of which is economic value What's the value of an 18 year old Marine? A 10 year old Muslim child? A 40 year old Iraqi Christian business owner? In your world they are worth less than a Kardashian?

There are different concepts of value, the most important of which is economic value, the price at which a willing buyer and a willing seller will agree it an exchange transaction. That is true value. There are other ideas of value but they have little or no significance. The concept of intrinsic value has some meaning, but it is of little economic consequence. Thus, Kim kardashian is, in fact, far more valuable than you or me. And that is one of the flaws of a capitalist system as the US practices it.
