So these companies exist in a different reality where they draw their resources and labor from somewhere else? Where else would labor come from if not the public?

[MrNeon]

"the public" and "public" are two different things. the labor and resource markets are private, not public.

[pests]

The markets maybe. Markets aren't the thing though.

[MrNeon]

Neither are the things in question, the resources for movie making are not public, crew isn't public, actors aren't public. It's not a public resource in any way.

[arpa]

money is a public resource.

[MrNeon]

Money isn't consumed and it only has value when used.

[arpa]

that's true. Therefore billions should return into circulation and/or otherwise return to the public.
