A cooperative of cooperatives! Co-op's covering Banking, Communications, Energy and Food (Agriculture, Processing and Preparation). Without a system of "at-cost" products and services, the market will always drive prices higher, either through inflation or through a perceived scarcity. Additionally, with this co-op of co-op's, efficiencies created within the system, create added value that can only lead to lower prices. In the for-profit world, lower costs accrue to the corporation and its shareholders only. Conversely, co-op's cost savings accrue to all patrons/members. Co-op's are the only way to save the economy and make it sustainable. Profit in our economy accrues only to the 1%. Conversely, in a co-op "profit" accrues to all equally.
