I can't be bothered to care about such a small thing.

I read a book on economics, and, therefore, I could get to see the structure of our hierarchical society.

Radical:

木 is the radical.

冓 is the phonetic and shows two "symmetrical" constructions (at least, they were symmetrical back in BC).

The definition of "to mind" arose from the older meaning of "join wood and build a structure." First it was "to construct," then "prepare for construction," then "mental preparation," then "to mind."
