      Point is, if money didn’t exist in the first place, we wouldn’t literally have to pay for a box and piece of dirt to sleep on.

      That’s basically the original scam, charging people to have somewhere to sleep. Like, doesn’t the Earth belong to all of us? Why do we live in a society where not only do you have to pay for facilities, you can’t even grow your own garden in said facilities?

      We’re literally paying to get screwed. Everyone should have the right to find themselves a piece of dirt and go build themselves a log cabin and a farm if they so choose.

      Again, humans are totally capable of being self sufficient, we’re just too fucking lazy and oppressed by big business and government to do anything about it.

        Money is a technological tool. It represents value of either commodities, services or work.

        If it were to be used in its original form, it would be fine, but people have been complaining about manipulation since the bible (old testament).

        So money isn’t to blame, it is (TADA!) people that are at fault.
