Here is a summary of a new Production Model I've been working on.<br>
<br>
Please let me know if you see any problems or have questions.<br>
<br>
<br>
1.) Users commit Physical Sources toward production.<br>
� �Physical Sources are: land, capital or labor.<br>
<br>
2.) The product is the return for the risk they take.<br>
<br>
3.) Each investor owns a portion of the product<br>
� �according to the amount of Sources they own.<br>
<br>
4.) For example, if you own 12% of a dairy cow,<br>
� �then you receive 12% of the milk each day.<br>
<br>
5.) These co-owners must continue to pay the costs<br>
� �of production, but cannot pay profit.<br>
<br>
6.) The product is not sold because the people who<br>
� �will use it are already the owners.<br>
<br>
7.) This reduces our need to trade products and<br>
� �therefore also reduces the possibility of<br>
� �external government interference such as taxes<br>
� �or licensing etc. that are meant to protect<br>
� �consumers from owners - since, in this case,<br>
� �the consumers and owners are one and the same.<br>
<br>
8.) Similarly, we can eliminate traditional wages by<br>
� �selling workers a portion of the Sources needed<br>
� �for the products *they* use - so those who commit<br>
� �to labor (for example) picking apples will receive<br>
� �commitments of land, capital and labor to insure<br>
� �(for example) his teeth are fixed and his car<br>
� �repaired when he needs solutions for which he does<br>
� �not have skills, or just wants to swap.<br>
