Owners of for-profit corporations cannot help the Consumers because
their Investors demand Profit which only occurs if the Product is
sold.

The Product does not need to be sold if the co-owners of the means of
production are the very same people who will Consume that Product.

Profit measures consumer dependence, and is *eliminated* when the
Investor is the Consumer who will accept Product as the Return for
risk.

Profit collected from non-owners (on the growth-edge) must be treated
as the Payer's Investment so each Consumer becomes a co-owner in
the means of production for that which he needs the outputs causing
that Payer to slowly accumulate the property ownership needed to stop
buying Product - for the co-owner of a cow does not buy milk because
he own his % already.

The idea is to organize Consumers to pre-pay for some good or service
(say cell-phone service), and then use those funds to purchase the
hardware needed to achieve that goal so that we can finally send
messages to each other for the *real* Costs of those messages instead
of
padding the pockets of those who intend to forever keep us in
subjugation in their quest to keep Price above Costs.
