Atlantis, slaves, intelligent infinity

I wish people would realize this. But the great majority of the people around me are perfectly ok with the monetary system, including the concept of being able to have more than others.

Other systems seem to require a level of awareness and evaluation skills that are not readily available at present.

Do you think that Ra had the same limitation on awareness and evaluation that we do? They do say that they never developed systems of money and barter like we have.

I'd imagine they had the same potential limitations but were not challenged by them. I doubt they even knew of, considered, or explored alternative systems in their history. When there is lack of conflict in an area, there is no problem. The primary problem here, as I see it, is how to assign relative value to address our unique circumstances. If we can not improve our ability to assess relative worth (of what we have and what we desire), within the overall social context, then we can't have a better system.
