if people are going to be terrorists, they shouldnt cost people lives, they should cost people money; that would make a change

I think that resource monopolization effectively dissociates long-term effectiveness of violent activities. Sure, destroying things can send a message, but if someone can choke out the foundations for survival, then that destruction is virtually meaningless and is but a soft croak in a howling thunderstorm of political power and military might. Society is very much an organic composition whose history is written by the victorious.

no reason for money to exist, its designed so that theres not enough to go around. being rich only matters if youre richer than someone else. have a society based around compassion and sharing rather than personal gain. if everybody was perfectly selfless there would be no need to be selfish if everybody was perfectly generous thered be no need to be greedy. its the most efficient system, it is gods system. every wise person in history has known this. not enough to make a change however, just enough to keep the idea alive

>no reason for money to exist

To an extent, I agree with you. I do think that some form of commodity will emerge as a dominating currency or that variances of currency will be utilized in any eventual developing situation.

Today's modern society reflects the history of humanity: the rulers must exist within indulgence, while the slaves rot in the deteriorating and destructive continuance of popular technological stagnation.

>perfectly selfless

I would argue that selfishness is an inherent product of existence and is the core motivator for altruist activities.

I think, rather than focusing upon the duality of give/ take, I think that balance ought to be prioritized upon the furtherance of the individual spirit.

A sort of… compassionate "I scratch your back, you scratch mine" sort of paradigm. One where individuals prosper because the collective has been given a broad enough field for functionality. The more potential we all have, the more progress that I, as an individual, can socially produce.
