What if you didn't need money to live?

@Coffee you don't need money to live. You need money to live better than having to kill to survive and living in the mud.

Money is just an abstraction of human organization. If you want to live without money, it isn't that you want to live without money, it is that you are in abusive relationships with who you trade your effort to for money and who you spend it on to get what you need. Break those relationships and find new ones, and you won't mind money so much.

@mister_monster Surely you mean, "other than to live in prison".

Kill what? Poaching is illegal, and so is killing domestic animals.

The problem is that human organization has spread everywhere. There is no "out", and abusive relationships are forced upon us.

Even if you buy land once, so you can live from it, you have to pay ongoing land tax, and that has to be paid in money.

@Coffee I don't believe there is no out, not really. There are plenty of peoples and places that are out, look at how they live and decide for yourself if that's the life you want. Most people would say no.

I agree that abusive relationships are the norm, but they aren't forced in you at all. You, like most people, just prefer it to the alternative.

You must kill to survive, it is the only natural law. Money enables you to outsource that so you don't have to get your hands dirty.
