I am catching up with posting online my articles.
This is the continuation of the previous article:
IS IT POSSIBLE TO LIVE WITHOUT MONEY ? - PART 1
IS IT POSSIBLE TO LIVE WITHOUT MONEY ? - PART 2
IS IT POSSIBLE TO LIVE WITHOUT MONEY ? - PART 3
One of the things which would prevent people from coming to an agreement today about living and working without money is that they are so stuck in their mind within the system of money that for them it is impossible to imagine to live without money. Most of the people have not heard about it or even if they did, they have placed it on the shelve within their mind with a label on it "utopia". This is like in the past people could not accept that the earth is circulating around the sun and they had a belief that it is the other way around. Their illusion was so real to them that they even wanted to kill those who dared to present evidence that it is not real. And this is one of the reasons why it is going to be impossible to come to an agreement today.
Well... but it doesn't mean that we will not be able to do it in the future... maybe even near future ! But for this we need to present this idea about living without money and present that this is possible to achieve. And in this way there will be more and more supporters and once we reach a critical breaking point then it will be easy to make it real.
Personally I really like this idea about living without money and all of the projects ( e.g. Zeitgeist Movement ) are very attractive and appealing to me. But as I said before unless we get enough supporters of this idea then it will be rather difficult to make it real.
And thus what would be the solution ?
Well... this thing with the money and how people cannot imagine to live without money is a little bit similar to an addiction. Personally I had a chance to observe for many years the addiction of my father to alcohol and this helped me to really understand how it all works. And this is why I say that the thing with the money is like an addiction.
Like many addictions people don't realise that they are addicted to it. They don't want to admit it. For example look how people react when you say that sugar is an addiction. Or marijuana. They think that this is normal and they will give you all sorts of reasons to try to convince you that they are right about it. And you will not "win" with them. But they may finally admit that they are addicted once this whole addiction becomes very destructive and it is "totally" out of their control.
I say it again that people are addicted to money and this is another reason which will prevent people from reaching an agreement about living without money. Thus what about if we make a transformation into the moneyless system in couple of steps ? And the first step would be implementation of the Basic Income Grant = BIG, which would eliminate the poverty and guarantee that everybody has their basic survival needs secured. But BIG has some weaknesses and thus it would be more beneficial to implement instead Living Income Guaranteed. Thus investigate it and support if because it will not happen by itself.
