Once again, for me that's a reduced life vision. I wonder how for example the aborigines or people that don't have contact with "modern civilization" live... You can believe whatever makes you happy, for me it's the same.... By the way, hope you can use well your money to make a less polluted planet and also hope you can buy the love of your life or your happiness....
The aboriginies lived in a different society than you do. You need money to pay the rent. However, throughout the history of society, there has always been 'money', you are just narrowing your vision down to paper money in order to not see that, so as not to disturb your rose colored vision of the world.
There were always 'rich' and 'poor' people, even in aborigonie cultures. There are always powerful and weak, Alpha, leaders, followers. Someone is the best hunter, the best warrior, the best fisher. Someone's garden grows and they have excess, avialable to trade for things they want - then they have more things than other people.
If this were not so, then the Navaho would not have so many of their myths wrapped up in greed and money and wealth. To the Navaho, to find a witch, you look for the person with the most, and their family or neihbor is hungry. If there was no rich and poor among them, where did they get such a concept in the first place?
btw, Old Bastard, i checked his profile. English seems to not be his first language. Thank goodness for that. Although he does not want stupid ones, i should mention. So, someone named tsatske is probably right out <grin> (tsatske: beautiful, brainless woman. armcandy)
