For everyone that keeps saying we need to get rid of money. I tell you, money is a tool. It allows me to trade my time, efforts and intelligence for money, which I can later trade for food, shelter and security. If there was no money, I would have to trade my time for food. If I wanted to eat, I would have to find someone with food that also wanted my services. And I would have to do this 3 times a day, every day.
Money/currency is simply a tool that allows me to trade my trade my time, efforts and intelligence for food, shelter and security.
What do you get if you take that tool away?
