It was stated in the post above mine that if we remove money from society, the result would be a society that required an iron fisted and so on goverment.

The Hadza people are very much alive today. Do they live in an oppressive society? What I am questioning is precisely correlation vs causation but also if the statement I referred to isn't rooted in the application of rules of one game to a fundamentally different game.
