What is Stigmergy?

[Amaterasu Solar]

Money - in ANY form - including trade, barter, and work exchange along with what You have listed - creates poverty and privilege, promotes psychopaths to power, allows oppression, causes wage/debt slavery, and makes profiteering a "thing."  It goes way beyond just being there to obtain "fleeting things."

No, money is just another thing, an inert, inanimate object. The LOVE of money - greed - is what causes all of those things. In order to change it, you'll have to change human nature and remove the greed motivation from everyone on Earth - including the "poor". Otherwise, those poor will be the next "psychopaths in charge".

Another powerful motivator, in addition to Greed, is Fear. Most powerful folks are powerful to begin with out of fear - fear that they will lose control of their own lives without the power to control other folks. Controlling husbands, controlling wives, and controlling people in general cling to that control out of fear for what their lives will be without absolute control over everyone else, just another face of insecurity. That's the same fear that motivates Socialists and manipulates them into needing control over everyone else.

May as well excise those emotions too while you're excising emotions from humanity... but will it still be humanity when you've accomplished that? Speaking as someone who intentionally suppresses emotion in himself, I'd have to think not.

Yes, money is the soil in which the root of all evil (unEthical behavior choices) grows.  In order to change it the soil needs to be removed.  For the love of money is not loving money itself, but the power over Others money provides - and thus the reason it promotes psychopaths to power; They will do literally anything to get and keep that power.  And given money merely accounts for Our energy added into the system...all We need to remove the soil is free energy - which We have technology for, but They (the psychopaths in control) hide and suppress it.  They know that it threatens Their power structure all too well.

Fear is what They use against Us, to manipulate Us.

If money is removed, We all may live as richly as We each might choose.  Define "greed" under those conditions...

Who's "excising emotions from humanity?"  Surely not Me.  It is the caring, compassion, love, and empathy I count on blossoming when money is removed.
