True, we will all be dead before we see a moneyless society but assuming civilization continues, a moneyless society is simply the most logical solution to enable that leap of civilization advancement.

It's part of the natural evolution of living.

Chasing after money is unnatural and it inhibits humanity, stalling personal growth and creating all sort of ills in society and for the environment.

I know all too well that human beings are not sophisticated...Was almost killed for doing nothing wrong, defamed mentally ill, and subsequently persecuted for about 7 years. It was only due to the unhappiness and insecurity of some people in power. My past ordeal too stems from money. Dictators always hoard money in the conviction that it adds to their influence and power factor. Society seems to share the idea that more successful people can get away with crimes especially if they hold a high public office. At least in Southeast Asia.

This fear-based living is destroying human's natural evolution. Women now marry for money and bad leaders get elected and followed simply because they command or have the support of vast sum of money. Money becomes the goal unto itself. It has become a universal perversion.

When just a few hundreds of people command 80-95% of the world's entire wealth, where does that leave the rest? Enslaved to work for money that will never be enough until the day we die.
