Not so... Wealth is produced by the manipulation of things that are (usually)
unsuable in their raw condition, and making something that is beneficial or
desirable of it. Of course wealth can be earned by providing services in which
nothing is "manufactured" -- such as entertainment, poetry, etc. as long as
someone is willing to purchase it from you. "Harnessing" is a strange concept...
I suppose (for instance) automobiles are running around loose in nature, belonging
to everyone in general and no one in particular, so someone has to corral them up
and "harness" them? Strange concepts you have...

That's the nature of communism, socialism, facsism and other forms of coerced
altruism... I believe it is your preferrence. There are generally only three
methods of obtaining wealth: (1)Produce it -- choice, (2)Plunder it -- your
choice, or (3) Patronage -- somebody gives it to you...
