Rachel Botsman - Collaborative Thinking Shortby londonbusinessforum291 views
Yes, I am for destroying the economy and replacing it with a resource based economy, moneyless economy or even love based economy. The so called 'economy' we have today can't survive. And in the end, money is not really needed when we all share and give without expecting anything in return. When the world is seen as One Big Family, this can be a reality.

It isn't communism you idiots, it's one of the systems our ancestors every had, the barter system. Only its a bit more sophisticated since it'd be almost instantaneous to find someone willing to exchange one good for another.
