    That will only happen if a society completely is reorganized to get rid of money or if they introduce universal basic income (at a rate that actually allows people to live).

    Realistically I can’t see either of those things happening.

      Or, more broadly, when individuals are recognized as valued participants in the community rather than obsolete expenses to try and scratch off the books.

      Realistically I can’t see either of those things happening.

      Not under current business and political leadership, no. But with a strong union movement leading a next generation of working class people… maybe.
