Orange Tree or Federal Reserve?

Name: Livingston 2009-01-17 7:53

    I have a proposition for you.
    I would like to start a business with you.
    I have an orange tree. In fact, I have the only orange tree that exists. I would like to loan these oranges to the public. However, I am going to put interest on this loan so that for every ten oranges I loan, they must give me eleven back. These oranges are not able to produce their own orange tree, nor can they multiply in any way. I am going to keep loaning them out until I am owed so many oranges in debt, that it becomes physically impossible for the public to pay me back.
    Are you on board?

The solution is to grow more trees and let the orange-consumer decide which tree produces fruit that suits his needs.  Obviously the original producer of oranges has a shitty product.  Compete and improve.
