Thinking, feeling and willing in a spiritual and daily matter

[Ming the Merciful]

Unintentional slavery will exist as long as the concept of money is used. A reset won't help. We need to transit away from money. Before this can happen people need to see. Not enough people are seeing at the moment. But we're getting there slowly.

Realistically, money does exist, (and it doesn't). Apart from the small amount of money we hold in our wallets, the majority of money is "Virtual". Our bank account, credit card debt and other debts are not physical money. We are attached to something that is not real. All online transactions happen in a "Virtual Reality". Something is ordered online, and we pay by the concept of money. The virtual money in a bank account is sent to the seller, and the amount is subtracted from your bank account or added to the credit card debt. Then, (hey presto), the item that was ordered materializes out of thin air. No physical currency changed hands.

Patrick, what other system would you like to use instead? Goats? I wish to purchase a new printer please. Two goats? If the goats are already slaughtered, there is a ten percent discount. One goat and three gallons of goats milk? Or, five pounds of goats cheese. Bartering has its limitations. I am sure that "HP" would be overwhelmed with their multitude of goats. An "HP Pavilion Laptop", for one cow, two sheep and five pounds of goats cheese.

I can see where you are coming from, although bartering does not work in the "Virtual Financial World".
