do we really need a money system?

I'm gonna say this,and I know some will think I'm crazy, but all I ask of you, is to try to look beyond this money system and into another way of being..

I think the world doesn't even need a monetary system .

And I think it would be far better off without one. really.

No need for money no need for the evil that comes from it.

Every single human being on the planet has a job to do,what gives the person joy,what fascinates him,what makes him curious or what he likes to build invent design.. He does his job and is compensated with every comfort man has made or will make in moderation. Humans like to make and create, think learn explore and invent it is in our nature.Man is entitled to what humankind creates together simply by being alive part of the human tribe, we all are entitled to all that humans manufacture design and create together. Some may produce more than others,regardless there is enough for all.Look at all the things that go to waste because not enough profit can be made off it.

If there was no need for profit how much would go to waste?

I do what ever it is I do,in return I have a decent home car T.V. kids pets and time to enjoy all that is in my pursuit of moderate happiness. There is enough.

Without money no one gets rich and no one has power over and equality is realized.

I think the banksters are scared to death if we fell out of love with money,if we realized as long as we love money more than life we are stuck playing this insane rigged token game that allows exploiters of humankind to 'modify our behaviors' .We are taught to fear telling the truth when a corporation hurts people, we are taught that saying no to a bully boss is wrong ,treating others with kindness will make us vulnerable, or sharing means we have less for ourselves..etc.. Our lives are dominated ,used up playing a sick token game that needs not even exist for human beings to be able to exist together.I think the token money game hold us all hostage, our lives,dreams,morality, by the love of money.

Just a thought.

How many of you liberal/progressive lumps do we have laying around everyday now wanting others to see to your every need? How many more would lay around and do nothing yet expect "their portion" if we're "entitled to all that humans manufacture design and create together?"  Way too many, that's how much.  You libs are lazy as it is. No reason to add fuel to the fire.

First of all, some one already thought this up and wrote a book about it. His name was Karl Marx.

Secondly, who is going to sweep the floors, clean the toilets, empty the trash cans because I don't see these activities and those like them to be something that fascinates people or makes them curious. I play in a band and I can tell you from experience that most every one wants to be the lead guitarist or singer and if everyone is a lead guitarist or singer then who plays bass and drums?

No Proglodytes, that's for sure.

And apparently they don't even want to pay to have someone else do it for them.

Proglodytes: they're lazy, demanding AND stingy.

The Subway Cat DUmmy.

Subway cat, you don't have any of those things.  You certainly do not have kids, and you most assuredly do not have happiness.  

Usually her threads are completely ignored, but some people responded.  One DUmmie keeled over mid-post:

25. I would get rid of paper money and coins. I myself only use $4 bucks a week in cash.

Everything else is credit card.

Paper money/coins are 100% antiquidated and there would be NO robberies if no one had any paper money.
get rid of it.

Yeah, because no one ever gets robbed for anything other than money.

They never stop to ask WHY every advanced civilization from Mesoamerica to ancient China and all points in-between that ever came crawling out of the caves used money and how the two facts are inextricably linked. They just assume it is an invention of greedy white people that was imposed on the rest of the world.

They only people who resent money are those who aren't worth a damn.

Most people aren't particularly creative, and sustaining a society that can deliver the creature comforts the DUmmtard wants 'In moderation' for all involves doing a whole lot of shitty, dangerous, or unpleasant jobs nobody wants to do at all.

The DUches have the logical thinking and maturity of a four year old.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

UP has confused the 'pursuit of happiness' with that 'acquisition of happiness'. No one has a right to be happy, only a right to seek and hopefully find happiness. She is wanting a guarantee of happiness which doesn't exist in this world and it would suck if it did. In most cases what can't be lost gets taken for granted and in this case happiness would soon be replaced with boredom.

UGP was born female, but believes she is really a male panther trapped in a female body. With udders. She has had many, many dealings with the mental health system, but nothing seems to have helped her. She is at odds with most of her family, as well as with "bullies" which seems to be defined as anyone who disagrees with her and/or tries to convince her to live in a more socially acceptable manner. She is one of those pathetic individuals who alienates everyone around her. Nothing is ever her fault, and she has been a victim of something or other, ever since she was born. And lately, I think she is getting worse.

To her credit, one of my moles once posted a (true) story about a problem involving someone I know, and she replied in a very warm, concerned, and helpful way. At that time, I decided to boycott all threads making fun of her, because I saw a side of her I hadn't known existed. This time, I just couldn't help myself.
