Yikes no. Cash generation's a proxy for capturing human value, maybe. If we run with that:

- value can be generated, but not captured (generally good-natured humans do this constantly with those in their communities), and

- value can also be captured, but not generated (i.e. stolen, most of the largest corporations do this in one way or another via e.g. monopolization, political corruption, union busting, resource exploitation, real estate speculation, etc).
