[P2P-F] Infinite Growth is Goal when Profit is Treated as Reward

[Apostolis Xekoukoulotakis]

I hope we didnt get confused because of my english.

How do you say in english the ability of a person to decide what to do with
an object or to decde what others could do with it.

I call this ownership. maybe I use the wrong word.

And yes, profit and debt wear different dresses but are the same person...
lol.
