Keys to the kingdom what a load of shit.
Proudhon argued for mutualist organization and criticized both capitalism and "dogmatic communism". Another thing, the professor brings up the outmoded idea of "natural law". That applies to biology, not to human social organization.
It's the love for what is, not divided from what is. When you will live your responsibility, you should not be forced by anyone. Money forces people to do things they don't want to. But they have to to survive.
People should have the power to live who they are. Nobody's master and nobody's servant.
I don't think so. We just should share the abundance mother Earth is giving us. Everybody has the right to be, to live and creating the world they want to live in. When it depends on the power of capital (enslavement), man can never bring what they want to bring in this world.
