Money comes in many different forms.
If the electrical system is not working then you cannot make payments with like modern card or the like.
I went into a couple businessses in the last 3 months that said they can only take cash at the time.
What does it mean to have money?
I do not work with checks or credit or debit or cell phone payments. I take hard currency. Some places and people I shop from do not like dealing with that stuff either.
I bought silver for $20 an ounce and some time later sold it for $35 an ounce about. Made a little bit of profit their and bought something from someone who takes US dollars for their goods.
I found out there are people in Mexico that will trade for a dollar. I have not spent a Peso yet. When do I need to do currency exchange? Who knows?
I want to move away from the US Dollar because I do not like graven images anymore. Letters and numbers are good.

A moral economy. Nowadays, morality is gradually declining in the economic sphere. Man is hanging himself with the rope of wealth. To widen morality, one has to decrease the greed for money. As money increases, ego and bad qualities increase. Today, when people become wealthy, their respect for others becomes sparse, though they expect great respect from others. This is not proper. The absence of ethics and spirituality in business is the cause of their downfall.

Otherwise, High IQs Must Use Their Brains Solely to Hack Into the Plutocrats' Bank AccountsPay students for their grades. Treat superior minds the same way we treat superior athletes today, from childhood on. (Yes, that implies they become socially popular and have their pick of the prettiest girls.) In grade school, divide the class into teams with a parity of IQ. Reward the team with the highest score on frequent quizzes with Friday off. That way, the smartkid will have the same social clout as an athlete who makes the game-winning score. The lowest-scoring team will have to come in on Saturday; high-scoring students four years older will get paid to teach the Saturday team-remedial classes. College students will get paid higher than they can expect for any other work at that age, plus free tuition. That will get a lot better natural talent than today's indentured-servitude system, which is for teenagers who are afraid to grow up. All this will pay for itself many times over. Employees who invent something will get 50% of the corporate patents. Soon they will be the only investors, replacing the blowhard high-rolling no-talent bozos we have today, who waste so much money on risky ideas that they have to demand outrageous returns on investment when they get lucky.

The "free market" the GreedHeads pretend exists actually means that whoever takes over a market is free to do whatever he wants. If anyone is such a pathetic richloving bootlicker that he thinks that the "government" is worse, it's because the plutocrats assign their spoiled sons to take over the government, pretend to be "Liberals," and purposely make it wasteful and obnoxious to trick people into reacting to it by supporting the hereditary plutocratic oligarchy.

What if something goes wrong (technology has its difficulties at times) and the robots go against us? stop watching too much sci fi Actually I am a horror addict. Then romance movies. Then drama. Scifi is after drama tied with action. Was just painting a scenerio to be answered with the robots.

An ideal economy was formulated by Marx in his Communist Manifesto: It is a social system where people function commercially in this manner, "From each according to his ability; to each according to his needs". A few problems arise in this system: Who determines what a person's needs are? Who provides the means of production (needed for the execution of one's abilities)? Who decides what and how much must be produced (by the exercise of one's abilities)? Ah, of course, the Communist chiefs do, and they are the neediest people in any society... History has shown thaht poverty and absence of freedom are the result of any Communist regime. Communism is desired by people who either lack the ability to produce anything, or who do not wish to work in order to make a living.
For a good economy we need a sound theory of labor and a sound (just) theory of commerce [exchanges], for there is no "invisible hand" [A. Smith!] that will automatically set all relations aright.

Science Is for SuckersThe few High IQs with any self-respect should fully support superior students dropping out in order to get the immediate rewards that geniuses deserve, as in the movie 21. Nerd pushovers should commit suicide for conforming to a Low IQ run system that turns them into Cash Cows for Corporate Cowboys. No scab has the right to lower wages for others. As long as your plutocratic idoss get economic boytoys to work without pay in college, this vicious and jealous insult to intelligence will continue. Another target should be the spoiled putrid richkid students, who get the high allowance and paid-up tuition that the few who belong in college should get instead. If you ever had a reality check, it would bounce.
