[MD] A society without money

Right on. And to the degree you are taxed on your income, you are a slave -
forcibly denied from possessing the fruits of your labor. The income tax is
a low quality social pattern designed to redistribute wealth on the Marxist
principle of "From each according to his ability, to each according to his
need."
Platt

Not sure what you mean by relating income tax to slavery. Did you read my
post on the Aussie doctor?
There are people that are denied access to even having the possibility
of creating any fruits of  labour; some because of their religion, some
because of the colour of their skin, some because of a disability or
disease. I'm sure there are other reasons used.

I realised at the time that this 'idea'  of a moneyless society would
provoke
reactions but I am a little surprised at the arguments and observations used
to dismiss even this idea. SOM has created many vested interests it seems.

This idea was set in the context of the financial crisis going on. It seems
there are a lot of people out there who consider money, which is only a
social pattern of benefit, as the DQ and SQ in one. Hauling it in by the
millions whilst at the same time playing dangerous games with the fruits of
labour of countles more people for whom it means something completely
different. And seeing it go up in smoke.

I'd rather be my own slave than owned by capital.
