Yeah and there`d be dead beats laying around everywhere,no incentive to make something of themselves.I understand taking the thieving bankers and wall street hoods down, but why should someone who`s bright and innovative and who has the drive to make a success out of himself have to share his money with a bunch of loafers?

money doesn't actually exist. money only has the value that people believe it has. if an alien came to the planet and had to take a shit, it wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a roll of charmin and a wad of $100 bills.

Re: if the wealth on this planet were shared, every person would have 12 million dollars!
That is the big secret they don't want you to know. If you shared the wealth of the planet and everyone had 12 million dollars then no one would have to work. If no one worked then there would be nothing to buy. Everyone would starve. Now if there was nothing to buy because no one worked then your 12 million dollars would be worthless.

So, money only represents work. People willing to work is the only thing that makes the dollar worth anything. Now people are not working real jobs and the only people with jobs are "parasite" jobs which means they do not produce anything. So it will not be long before the dollar is worthless. When your money no longer represents work that produces goods then it is doomed.

You know, like in South Americans countries, 12 million pesos sounds like a lot of money. But wouldn't buy you a loaf of bread and shit.

That means there is enough equity in this world to share with all. If you do not know what equity is... well it is that stuff you own that is worth money.

If everyone has equal opportunity in this world, it is not hard to prosper in a free society. You still have to work for it, but think if you could retire earlier.

EVERY economy that has ever existed has depended on a SLAVE CLASS of workers to ensure the 'elite' at the top could live like kings and aristocracy. today is no different.. if you 'gave 12 million dollars' to everyone, 12 million dollars wouldn't be worth anything... the 'money' you want to give someone else for something wouldn't mean much considering 'they' already have 12 million as well.. they would charge much more to do something they 'don't feel like doing' ... hence making the money not worth what it is today

OK OK, libtards are not good at math, I know. But lets just entertain libtard OP for a sec. So lets see, 6 billion people in word X 12 million dollars, so that's like an annual GDP of #72,000,000,000,000,000 produced by the world! Why thats some crazy stupid liberal niqqa math and economics from OP!

Yeah, but the wars for that share of wealth would be heinous and amoral, and the species other than man; the plants and the fishes and the mammals would still go extinct as we squander that petty definition of 'wealth'.

There is only ONE WAY to salvage any common sense from this existence, FREE PLANET.

I know, I know, many of you can't cope with this concept as it goes against the ingrained (and insidious) 'ownership' and 'privacy' dogma crammed into your ruptured brains since birth and reinforced day after day via cruel financial ASPIRATIONALISM.

But it's true; FREE PLANET is it. The one gift from God, the one thing we've abused, the one solution we ignore.

This. Along with the fact that as soon as it is redistrubted equally, the share one person has can either become larger or smaller depending on what item they trade another person for.

You are not factoring in human nature, one person may blow their whole wad of 12 million within a short period of time while others hold onto it and live nicely. Then what happens with that person who blows his wad of 12 million, are you to redistribute more money to them?

Re: if the wealth on this planet were shared, every person would have 12 million dollars!
It is interesting concept.

Let's take a look, 12 * 10^6 * 7 * 10^9= 84 * 10^15 $
Nominal GWP for 2011, 0,069 * 10^15$
Cumulated (guestimate) GWP since begining of times till the end of 2011 1,25 * 10^15$

So I call BS.

IF you compare it to derivates it clearly shows that there is no wealth to back it up so it have to pop and it will be TEOTWAWKI.

Could you elaborate from where did you pull this 12*10^6 number?

And if it was given to all of us, then we would have hyper-inflation everywhere.

That is how money works.

Its not the printing, it is how it ends up in the hands of the people who need to use it.

I call BS on that people would DIE if they would be allowed to be economically free!

Many sheep say that we have to work hard (8-10 hours) to some potatoes on the f:ing table. Well, if you love the System then work your rear off.

Not even f:ing monkeys die despite lack of money, THEY WORK TOGETHER for the flock/proto tribe.

I believe that we humans also would work together if we had zero or much money, we CAN'T STAND BOREDOM. Look at the Amish, they are doing fine so we could easily learn from them. Also, we could build a better society, people could pay with a few hours of work as hard currency.

One of the better comments here.

I believe that we could build a better society out of shear boredom, we only would need some good plans and strategy...oh wait, that would lead to national-socialism (nazism)...in which people created a great welfare system in the late thirties. (in Germany)

No, only total enslavement by Credit works, as History shows. (cynical joke)

In a fair system REAL WORK would be a hard currency (not gold backup or anything), it would also mean that the more we are the easier life could be since more people could do more work under LESS time, we should work less and less in a good system AND still have a nice wellfare society.

Unfortunately, only MISERY and destructive/extractive capitalism works well in real life, in a pyramide-game scheme! lol

If everyone had 12 million dollars it would mean nothing. You can never have an even split because you will always have consumers and producers. Producers would merely charge $400 per loaf of bread, a gallon of milk, or a hamburger and all those city folks would have to pay it or starve. Soon enough, they would be poor again.
