So you're saying money was set up for the benefit of one group, at the detriment of another group?

The way I think of it is since humans evolved from animals they originated in the animal struggle for survival. This struggle was constant and everlasting so humans sought to end it, but instead set up the system of money. Now most people have to struggle to get money, just like how any animal has to work for its food, yet the system imposed by humans seems more cruel than nature. In the human system death and suicide are illegal, yet they are institutionalized. In nature death is natural and suicide unncessary but not illegal. The worst part is only one one hundreth of one percent of the total population controls the money system, when you really look at it.

Think of it as an extension of the survival program nature puts into all it's creatures. Survival of the fittest. There is nothing different about us even if we are wearing suits. And don't forget that money is used for keeping people together too.

But how will I get a loan or a mortgage, if all we have is barter?

money is a means of control, it is a vehicle for the rich to steal from the poor, and unequal distribution is how the bastards keep their positions of power. the problem is that the majority of people have been blinded to accept that money is part of life and that is it a means of freedom and choice, when in truth the system in place now stimulates the exact opposite. Every monetary system introduces itself with the promise of justice and equality, but what it becomes is a feudal society, with the masses being serfs who serve the small percentage of lords who run everything, and the stealing from the poor just continues as if it is justfiable because we all have the means to live the 'american dream', right? no, in this society you initially need money to get more money, so the vicious cycle continues.
is that something along the lines of what you meant to say?

I couldnt read past the first sentece cos this is seriously misguided thinking...
Since when did the rich have to steal from the poor dude? The rich OWN 95% of the wealth. Why would they need to steal anything? how could the rich even steal from the poor when most of them don't have anything?
