Hi,

I wanted to run this by you and see what you say.

What if we scrapped money altogether and just gave everybody what they wanted?

I know it sounds ridiculous, and everybody would just go for 100 cars and 100 fancy houses, but if you think about it, if you could get everything you wanted, all those things wouldn't be as valuable anymore, and it would lose it's "richness" appeal and people would be bored by it after a while and just settle with what they actually needed. Don't we have all the technology and resources to make this happen? It could also mean less crimes would happen then too.

Sidenote: I love the idea of bitcoin so I don't really want to ruin bitcoin, but hey, maybe we could go there with bitcoin somehow... Smiley

You have a wrong point of view. If everyone can get what he/she wants then there will be chaos. People will be subjected to greed and will want to get everything he/she wanted. Though no one will be treated as rich in the aspect of money and asset, but the new rich people there are those who will have the most power. This will be a chaotic world without order at all. However you are right about having less crime, this is because no law will exist due to the absence of order and everyone gets what he wants.
