Excerpt from Production for Use
Non-production is not new in the world. I daresay no tribe ever 1 the face of the earth that has not practiced it to some The observations of anthropologists are filled with reports of non-production based on every variety of prohibition and restriction. Such prohibitions are known as taboos. Many of them once had a useful or at least an understandable purpose. But they often persisted long after their usefulness had disappeared.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the root causes of poverty in America, arguing that widespread destitution stems not from a lack of resources but from artificial barriers within society itself. The author meticulously examines the economic landscape of the early 20th century, dissecting how traditional customs and taboos, such as the prohibition of certain activities during religious festivals, have held back wealth creation. Drawing parallels to societies across time and cultures, the book reveals how similar practices have stifled economic growth throughout history. The author asserts that America's potential for abundance is being squandered due to an outdated concept of wealth that emphasizes the exchange of money over the production of goods and services. This insightful analysis challenges conventional wisdom and offers a fresh perspective on the issue of poverty, underscoring the transformative power of removing artificial obstacles to unleash economic prosperity.
