For Future Product
We can hold property and promises for the future production they assure.
When owner is occupier, rent no longer flows. At the scale of home economics, tools and plants and animals are already owned to automatically own those Future Productions *without purchase*, and so profit no longer flows.
Hmm, but what about all that work?
For predictable goods and services, we can 'bind' work early in time by signing legally-binding work contracts.
This solves the double-coincidence of wants, but only for the things that we know we want.
We all need essential goods and services to wash, eat, sleep and dress. We can easily supply ourselves with all that we need in groups of groups, and groups of groups of groups, using large-scale ecosystem restoration techniques to build permacultured cities owned and operated by those citizen-owners through a set of opt-in, semi-continuous parallel crowdfunding campaigns. Want the pothole fixed? Commit your skills into the system [not necessarily fixing potholes], and if there is a value-match between you and a person that can fix potholes, then you can pay-with-future-work to vote for it to happen. Open Source Production in the material world through the For Product model.
== Plan Find land for sale that can be used to build a permacultured private city. Verify the essential goods and services we could produce at that location.
== Fund Issue Product Tickets representing those future goods and services. Auction Product Tickets to secure the land and tools without debt.
== Work Issue Source Titles representing small amounts of land ownership. Issue Work Agreements representing commitments to achieve that production. Auction Source Titles to secure Work Agreement signatures.
== Own If both auctions succeed, buy land and tools and announce first day of work. Vest Source Titles to workers as the first round-of-production is completed. Workers own the Source Titles used to fulfill Product Tickets they bought.
== User Interface
