Scale and the Micropayment: The Missing Lever

Such a utility can be run profitably or non-profitably…

My preference is that it should be run as a for-profit structure BUT majority or completely owned by its users (i.e.everybody as a co-op or some form of universal ownership)

I believe I deserve a role in its development and some acknowledgment in bringing it forward as I’ve incurred great loss trying to get it noticed. If the model is faulty I welcome input on ways to improve it. I hold U.S. patent (which I know many may object to) but I’ve also long welcomed development here or elsewhere and only ask some consideration. (Frankly, like many of us in this movement I’m very, very poor and not some big wig trying to start a monopoly which this could tend toward).

Moreover if I can get it developed there I can use that to force any U.S. domestic attempt to do the same thing to conform to some form of public ownership (happy to consider one of the innovative biz models discussed here to avoid its eventual dominance by corporate and financial interests (which is likely unless they can be finessed… i.e. either forced or embarrassed into it.)
