      Raw resources? Money as an entire concept is both irredeemably flawed and an extremely recent invention.

      Need food? Get food. Need metal? Get metal. Need a phone? Get a phone. Need healthcare? Get healthcare. If you distribute it so everyone gets a fair share based on their individual needs, there will be no need for money.

        I wouldnt call a few thousand years “extremely recent”. And like I said in my other comment, carrying and storing gold or money is a lot more practical than a truck full of vegetables.
