Poll: Human experiment, if we lived in a society without money..................
POLL: What would you do?
 I would conform with the free basic needs
 I would work to attain more comfort/luxury
 Blank (View Results) 



If we lived in a society without money and the very basic needs (housing, food, clothing, education etc)were freely granted to everyone, with work just being a choice for those who wish to acquire extra comfort/luxury, what would you choose?

This is an hypothetical scenario which is unrealistic because it doesn't take into account the fact that all those free basic needs would have to be provided/developed/built by someone before the system could even be implemented, but let's participate regardless just for the sake of knowing how most would react in such scenario.

Only Real Men can with safety destroy the tangled forests and wilderness of Earth and make from them gardens, but will those who inherit the gardens be Real Men? The law decrees that they must be, or the wilderness will reclaim its own.”

This is not my stance btw, I am actually sure that if this thread was pinned and people actually participated you'd see that the majority would vote for conforming with the basics, thus making the point that people actually have motivation to work because they need to sustain themselves, and if they wouldn't have that need they wouldn't see the need to do so anymore.

In that case you better have some robots ready to do the work, or else the whole of civilization would quickly revert to the stone age.

9teen Well OK then. Basically I'm in favour of the small business model. Which means NO McDonalds, Burger King and other giants taking control.

I agree with that, but in a nationalistic environment. Meaning you could go to Israel and start your small business there among your people, but not anywhere near white non Jewish European folk. wink
