Eric; set up 500 corporations each with 50 SH(max), and you have 25,000 SH. Groups of 50 of those corps own others corps and so on until you get to the final corp held by 50 subcorps. An honest pyramid. with no more than 50Sh in each. The head corp owns the land and all the rest run as a greek democracy, electing pres etc all the way up. A bigger SH might own all the shares in one ore more grass root corporations, and some would own 1/50th.

Hows that for a model. Lots of fees though, but fully private.

Bill

EC, re you unit of exchange discussion
<<If a dollar always equals one unit of energy or information then there will be no inflation.>>

Are you speaking of a unit of energy produced, or a unit of energy consumed? Efficiencies in production mean that the cost of producing any unit of energy, or information, for that matter, will likely decrease over time. And would this not imply that yesterday's energy unit would be worth less in today's world? The proliferation of dollars, or of energy units, both imply inflation. Both assert the need to consume today, as tomorrow's units will be debased.

I think the Micronesian Coral Wheels are better; At least in a cultural environ where the technology for production of the unit is relatively constant...by whatever means.

Forgive me my questioning here; I've never claimed to be much of an economist.
