Why are corporations against us? Can that conflict ever be resolved? What if the investors wanted the consumers to receive *real* solutions? What if the investors wanted to *eliminate* the very problems that corporation was created to solve? What if the investors had no reason to seek scarcity and withhold solutions? Notice the consumers already pay all of the costs of production. And the consumers also pay profit because they pay late. Could we ever get consumers to pre-pay for products (whether chicken eggs or internet service) and then use those funds to purchase the Means of Production? When the consumers are the investors and co-owners for the purpose of using the product directly, then there is no conflict between the goals of the investors and the goals of the consumers because they are the very same set of people! To own for profit is to seek scarcity and stop the consumer from gaining full control. To own for product is to seek abundance with no reason to withhold real solutions. Of course every consumer is either a worker or a dependent. So to say the consumers should own the Means of Production is also to say the workers should own, but specifically it is addressing what they should own, and for what purpose. Workers need ownership in the Means of Production for the products they *consume*, and do not necessarily need ownership in the Means of Production for which they have skills to operate. When consumers co-own the Means of Production, then they can hire *any* worker, and so every worker can begin immediately without trying to own the Means for exchange value. Just as in the OpenSource/FreeSoftware arena, this will drive wages for many jobs to near zero because it will just be so easy and fun to do so many things, that many people will do some jobs for free. This would be cause for alarm if we didn't realize that workers are also consumers and so will necessarily be owners for the purpose of using the product directly.
