Re: Moneyless society : Would it benefit society?
A pure barter system (one w/o money...ie one cow for 2 acres of land) can only really be useful in local agricultural societies. Would you work for sony if they only gave you TV's? They guy growing corn may already have one and not want what you have to trade..
Money although technically worthless represents value. It is accepted because we all have agreed to use it. But only in a limited scope... I doubt your NYC taxi driver will take Euros..
A currecny has been in place for many years (around 1000 BCE Iron coins have been found).
It is just easier.
