Permaculture economy

My family and co-workers have been attending classes to learn permaculture. We are being taught how to group plants to help each other; about the importance of observation; about diversity and robustness of life on the edge of two environments; about plant connections; about redundancy; about leverage points to get maximum effect from minimal change.

After a week of contemplation, we started realizing that these are all basic economic lessons too. What can we learn by analogies between economics, entrepreneurship, and permaculture?
