It wouldn't be as much fun because you would get everything you want making your next visit
boring...There would be nothing else to buy....

We should have a free-enterprise system by which everyone's physical needs are met, but by which
everyone works for it.
Nothing is free.
That is called stealing, and stealing is immoral and it is a sort of abuse in that it is
inconsiderate of someone else's needs.
Your rights end where someone else's begins. |

Smito - you're still taking about money when you say credits. However, it is true that greed is
major. As ugly as greed is, I'm afraid there are lots of things which wouldn't exist if it were not
for greed. Think of services people offer for money, which you could otherwise never locate, and
have to do yourself. Discoveries get backbone from sellability, and quality might take a back seat,
if weren't governing $ to encourage things to meet a buying standard. What of guarantees? So
there are of course reasons to appreciate greed.
I do like to believe that people would simply come out and offer to help each other, if everything
were free. Become your neighbor's therapist, or dog walker, or house cleaner, or painter, or run
your electric corporation just because they asked you or because you wanted to. And, who would make
the decisions? The owner or the artist? Wait ya can't own anything. I don't know. I have just
wished this since I was a little girl. I've recognized the inequity at a youthful age. For
example, who owns and can sell a view? Fish? Land? Oil? Metals? Diamonds? These items are
found, and belong to the earth. They cost little to nothing, yet, are so highly valued that they
keep afloat nations. The cost is man made. They are taken with no repayment, nor sharing with all
people and other living things.
What is free is everyone's business, but we are used to pretending it is not. BTW - fresh air is
getting pretty expensive if not impossible to find in some places. Just because you are inhaling it
doesn't make it good for you. Once again greed about consumption of natural resources. It's an
entirely different debate.... Or, is it?

Well not free but i think that money shouldn't exist. For some much work one should receive credits
which would be written in down and put in a deep protection. The more helpful the work the more
credits are given, to stop useless people; aka football players and rockbands; from receiving more
money then they work for. Now this is sorta impossible with our current technology but may be
possible in the future. |
