"Business does not create jobs. Jobs are created
by consumer demand, needs, wants and individual inventors" ~Richard
Gerber
Let’s talk about the reality behind the
illusion.
Business does not create jobs. Jobs are created by consumer demand.
Both private sector (individual) and public sector (collective) a
business has no existence without the consumer needs and wants. It
is the consumer that creates the jobs, and it is producers that fill
them. Generally a producer specializes in a single area of
production or service while as a consumer he consumes a multitude of
products and services. This is the reason we need an intangible
value exchange system backed by intangibles.
A business is simply a framework for a joint venture between a group
of economic system participants to produce a product or service that
is needed or in demand because of want by other economic system
participants.
The economic system participants create all new money however the
amount created is not based on actual production. New money is
created by the creation of debt based on a commitment of said
economic participant to produce future value. The amount of money
that can be created is somewhat unlimited over time and is in direct
proportion to the commitment to produce future value. In other words
the consumers are not subject to any lack of money as long as they
have a skill set or activity that opens a revenue pipe.
The amount of future value that needs to be created is collectively
determined by the economic constituency first based on essential
needs, public works, and then wants.
It is essential to all economic participants that every other ESP
have a revenue pipe resulting from an available contribution channel
allowing all economic participants the opportunity to participate in
the creation of value.
One of the questions is how do we measure the value of a
contribution. While we can determine the value of the finished good
or delivery of service it is not always easy to determine the
percentage of value each ESP involved in the production or delivery
provided. A proper evaluation of the contribution involves a measure
of skills, experience, knowledge, certification, creative
intelligence, artful capability and genius.
To create jobs an economic constituency simply needs to collectively
decide to create some value whether it is a dam, bridges,
communication system, roads etc. Jobs are also created by collective
want. If enough economic participants want a particular service or
product it then becomes feasible for a smaller group to form a joint
venture to provide the service or produce the product. If enough
miscellaneous wants exist it creates a non-essential economy and
with enough variety all ESPs can participate in not only the
essential economy but also the non-essential economy.
There is one entity that can create jobs in an indirect way and that
is the inventor. Often the general populations of ESPs are unable to
conceive of products and services from which they might benefit, yet
those gifted with a creative genius can invent new things seen to
have value by other ESPs. In which case the inventor is then
assisted by a group of ESPs in a collective effort to produce the
product or service invented.
Usually the business owner is responsible for bringing together ESPs
to produce a product or service. The business owner or manager has
the most responsibility and in general receives a larger percentage
of the revenue pipe feed. Some businesses can be owned by a
multitude of people shareholders which elect a board of directors to
over see a hired management. Creating value greater than the cost to
produce said value is generating a profit.
As for government regulation in the new economics collective
consumer control replaces most government regulation. ~Richard
