It is a system in which all goods and services are available without the use of money, credits, barter or any other system of debt or servitude. All resources become the common heritage of all of the inhabitants, not just a select few.

In a resource-based economy all of the world's resources are held as the common heritage of all of Earth's people, thus eventually outgrowing the need for the artificial boundaries that separate people. This is the unifying imperative.

In a more humane civilization, instead of machines displacing people they would shorten the workday, increase the availability of goods and services, and lengthen vacation time. If we utilize new technology to raise the standard of living for all people, then the infusion of machine technology would no longer be a threat.

Considerable amounts of energy would also be saved by eliminating the duplication of competitive products such as tools, eating utensils, pots, pans and vacuum cleaners. Choice is good. But instead of hundreds of different manufacturing plants and all the paperwork and personnel required to turn out similar products, only a few of the highest quality would be needed to serve the entire population.

With all due respect, it sounds a bit too much like communism.
Sharing the wealth, no currency.

Before you attack me, this is just what I first thought when I read it. And it did make sense in a way, but I doubt whether it's actually possible. Human nature creates the need for money. We are greedy, we want more of the best. Sharing is also human but in this scale I do not believe it's do-able. Call me a cynic if you will....hy:

Hey it's pretty hard for someone raised to believe the world only works one way and thats by getting paid. It is hard to imagine a system that works without money. Your not alone in that lock.
If you already had everything you wanted and anything you did not have you had access to when ever you wanted it then where does greed come in? Greed is not basic human nature it is taught to us by the system we are raised in. You have been raised from birth as have your parents and theirs before them and so on to know 100% for sure that the monetary system is the only system that will ever work. Everyone around you save a very few have been also. With that kind of reinforcement to a system it becomes very hard to break free and imagine anything different let alone try to change it.
That said this is nothing like any system you have ever encountered before let alone communism. Maybe you should follow the links and do a bit more research other than reading the cover page and letting your breeding block you understanding.
