Re: [ox-en] There is no such thing like "peer money"

Great, and I agree with you.

But do you think, in reality that everyone *will* plausibly do away with
markets. That is my point


Not that we shouldn't do away with them, but whether the collective we of
humanity will. I do not think everyone will. Not in my lifetime.

nature, and work entirely different than existing markets...

Sam, forgive my bluntness, but if we really want to be biomometic (which I
think we should) we must do away with markets.

The logic of biotopes and biological systems is the organisation around
abundant flows of resources and the adaption of processes around them.
Nature does not trade and withhold (be- "wahren" which is the source of
"Ware"), it uses creatively. It does not hold back a service until an
equivalent can be delivered, it rather uses self-balancing cycles of
giving and recovering.

There is a certtain cruelty in the way this is done in nature, that humans
can eliminate. But if you look at the material synergetic relationships
that emerge from the principle, they have nothing, nothing, nothing to do
with markets.
