At the risk of being facetious: my dog, for one, would beg to differ.
I'm not sure
how one would come to the conclusion that all relations are zero-sum.
All
relations are most definitely unbalanced (and Foucault has a lot to say
about
this), but this does not imply they are all zero-sum. SMBD, as I read
it, argues
the complete opposite of your comment.
