2 things the human race will have to combine and achieve before we evolve.

if we don't, it will be like a stagnant parasite within us all.

Re: Get rid of the money system, then get rid of goverrments
Without a government, social contracts would spring up unto someone with more than another would have more to trade, but less to seek. They'll gain power over others and you will soon gain a government.

And money is another form of service for a service. How would you get food without trading for something? How would you trade for anything, without something?
You won't be able to, and the poor would die off. The middle class would slowly become poor, and die off. The rich would have everything, until they started drifting into wars to captures what others have.

If you are proposing anarchy, that is what you will get. If you are proposing a true form of communism, you will never get it. Humans are not ants, and never will be. And even ants are controlled by a leader.

Decentralized mutual credit is the answer.

Greco has at least two slide shows he uses for his talks in power point presentation software.

There is at least one highly effective ppp file at the altruist website along the same theme (avoiding centralized currency)

good luck

Re: Get rid of the money system, then get rid of goverrments
Through history, many things have been used as medium of exchange.

Here is some history: [link to projects.exeter.ac.uk]

Today's system uses interest bearing hypothecated debt as the fundamental system, however this grows the debt in an exponential manner.

Martenson points out the result in his series of you tubes:
[link to www.chrismartenson.com]

The other - very major - problem everyone misses is that the seigniorage is assigned to governments or to bankers, and that misappropriation is an error of axiomatic magnitude that amplifies itself down through time resulting in the problems we face today.

To balance the books, the money tokens - no matter what format they take - must have their face value assigned to the people who give value to the tokens. This assignment must take place at inception.

Any particular money token is a socially accepted mnemonic device. Narayana Kocherlakota points this out in his writing.

Anarchy is merely libertarian socialism; that is, pure communism.

It has nothing to do with ants; that's colonialism, which is a form of Imperialism, which is pure Capitalism.

You seem to have it all backwards; think about what is being proposed before posting again.

How are they doing things in Somalia?

I understand they have cell phone coverage there.

To see things outside of the box, first you need the courage to step out of the box.

And believe me; the real box is in your own head, and you have been taught that should a crack appear in the walls that you quickly cover the crack lest some light come in.

Watch some Molyneux videos; they will help.
