You are trying to make a case for society to be built on barter
Gift economy is just yet another mode of distribution, you obviously don't need to haul around the tangible goods
You can have a medium of exchange that doesn't entail a market
Its not like I'm asking people to trade horses or couches
So calling it a barter or implying such a thing is meh
Whether it's barter or not, I think we both know I mean making goods for the sake of the goods themselves,
Not the wage to then go buy goods
Barter is the direct trade of goods and services without the use of money.
You essentially want to end the entire finance industry because you think money is bad. And you want to replace what is used to help set a standard of relative value between goods with nothing.
Read what I said above
Your idea would lead to huge job loss.
Read
Whay
I said
Above
It said nothing about the abolition of a medium of sale
Then what will you replace money with? More money?
The idea is to move the value away from capital, and to the distribution of goods
What that means is no, You don't literally have to abolish money, just not yet
But just because no money exists doesn't mean people don't work
There is no "human nature" argument to be had there
No?
You're operating within a capitalist market, then sure,
But the idea is to abolish the market as the means of distribution
Would Labour unions prevent It?
People wouldn't just stop working
Labour unions prevent what?
Job losses
If you entire argument for the refutation of anything less than capitalism is _the finance market_
Well, they'd probably try and prevent the entire finance industry being abolished, yes.
See
Syndicalism works
For Wall Street in this instance, yes.
Then idk what to tell toy
Wow
That last message
Didnt send
Abolish the American jewry?
I like the idea
If your entire argument against anything short of capitalism
Is the loss of finance as an industry
