  your publicly listed company, using letters of
  credit opened by your brother-in-law at the bank,
  then execute a debt / equity swap with associated
  general offer so that you get all four cows back,
  with a tax deduction for keeping five cows. The
  milk rights of six cows are transferred via a
  Panamanian intermediary to a Cayman Islands
  company secretly owned by the majority
  shareholder, who sells the rights to all seven
  cows' milk back to the listed company. The annual
  report says that the company owns eight cows,
  with an option on one more.

  ownership of farms and businesses

  members of a society are equal owners of a
  business and everyone shares in the profits

  should need.
