Everyone is a merchant, some work for barter? SOmething else?

Guilds and professions. Artisans and traders.

You weave baskets.

I raise chickens.

I give you eggs... you give me a basket.

Community. Providing what each other needs and sharing freely.

One makes sturdy tables another cares for pets (vet).

No money changes... your dog is sick you take them to the person/people trained in that. If you are a carpenter, you make them something they need or they can exchange for something else.

It would require CARE and intimacy between people. Knowing what you do, love and can provide and sharing those skills with others.

This is exactly what they don't want, because not only is it devoid of money but also governance. A community would be self-sufficient, peaceful and unified.

You would train and teach your children in the craft you know, unless they show passion and aptitude for another profession... than they would follow that path.

But all would be productive and helpful in some way.

Even retards and disabled, etc. could have value in helping with simple tasks giving them purpose.

The way current society is run is combative, competitive, aggressive and more importantly controlled. It's OBSOLETE.

It also encourages and rewards people that do not contribute. Because it is trying to create a need to rule, control and have dependency on the system instead of the self.
