Deferring use for a future date where our need may be greater is a significant aspect of human life.In the context of a situation where someone wanted to defer use or invest in something sure - but stated in a vacuum that's an empty truth. If a system which does not allow deferment is judged based upon the metric of deferment we could always call it disadvantaged. We could do this -with anything-. I'd always defer to productivity over investment and deferment - especially in the case of real estate, personally. We'd have to assume that the latter two were an appropriate use of said property before it became a disadvantage in and of itself. Different tools for different jobs and all that jazz.
Quote:How would a futures contract work in priority use system? A party cannot guarantee that an object would be available for use at a future date.Same as it would now. I simply wouldn't apply futures, investment, or deferment to real estate. You could still set a futures contract for your goods or services. I could set the price of a bushel of tomato in today, and deliver in 95 days. For example - in the context of a contractual agreement.
Consider the manner in which "public" funds and resources are currently allocated. Proposals are made which detail the cost, the length of use, the expected results. There's nothing fundamentally different in the way that this is/could be done and a priority use system. The organization has "x" - proposals are collected for the use of "x", the proposals are judged on their merits and we move forward.
