II. Abundance.
Under abundance Of the instruments of abundance, the
fund is composed of the surplus of the means of subsistence, deduction
made of the quantity destroyed by consumption in all its shapes.

Increase of production — decrease of consumption — under
one or other of these two heads may be comprehended all the possible
causes of increase to the abundance fund.

Natural and factitious — under one or other of these two
heads may be comprehended all the possible modes of increases to
production.

By natural, understand all those that have place without
intervention on the part of the Legislator Government in this particular view.
Under this same head natural, is therefore comprehended whatsoever
assistance is afforded to production by the security afforded to produce.

By factitious modes of increase to production, understand
all such as are employed by Government in that special view.

[Here comes in with propriety one general and all-comprehensive
rule] Rule. In so far as the natural means of increase
to the abundance fund suffice for the production of the effect,
think not forbear to employ any factitious means for giving encrease addition or
acceleration to it.

[Reasons.] Neither on this occasion for this purpose, nor for on any other,
can the hand power of Government be employed, but coercion must be
applied: immediately, as where in so far as the inducements employed are of
the penal kind, unimmediately, as where the means in so far as the inducements employed
are of the remunerative kind: but it is only by coercion that
any means of remuneration can be collected.

In favour, and for the benefit of, A. you can not seek to
give encrease to production in the hands of A. except in so far
as coercion is applied — either to A. himself, or to B; C. and D; and
so forth.
