Joel -

In response to your parable :

"A brilliant inventor owns patents on two machines that produce donuts out
of thin air. He offers to sell you a franchise to use one of the machines
to make donuts. Both franchises are located next to a police station so
you are guaranteed to sell all the donuts you can produce."

Again, your premise is flawed. Everyone knows police always get free donuts. They don't pay for them. The whole business setup is wrong.
