I think this way we can use it again because it wouldn´t be any doubts of money and you can easily get the things you want. Because with money if you don´t have money you can´t buy things that you need and with this mutual obligation everyone can have what they want and there wouldn´t be troubles of people that don´t pay and this would make us a compromise society to give back to the person who lend you what you want.
ReplyDeleteAnother way to continue with the economy is to have the same price in every country because some people can´t afford for things they need and with this idea all the people can have access to their necessities. Maybe this can affect the country that produce the stuff but in this way everyone can get it and the economy would stay the same if they sell more quantity at the same price.
It will be perfect that mutual obligation worked again but let be real is a BIG change and a lot of interest are between, there are many very powerful people that will do everything against the mutual obligation it could finished in a war and the ones in favor are going to lose there would be many deaths since we're getting with money and money is power, I think there are two types of people or those fighting wars, for money which are very satiable or fighting for power which are insatiable and society now is not ready for these change we are stingy, selfish and ambitious , so it would be good if mutual obligation worked again, but in these time money matters, yes it will be a healthier society, but I don’t think that these will be possible in the future. We can measure healthiness whit lifetime because if people live longer this means they have health and a good environment.
ReplyDeleteWell I think that is great, you practically get what you want and you will have time to pay-back to the person that gave that thing to you. But the money, the coin, is something that makes us have control about our expenses, if you accept the idea of “mutual obligation” and you don´t have a certain control, maybe you would be in the same way as you are now, indebted, but now you wouldn´t pay with money, you would pay with favors or well a thing that worth the same as the ones as you get. I like the idea, but have a coin is indispensable for the society, that make us more careful about the money and the things that we have, being responsible of your life. Money matters obviously, are the paper that moves the world and most of the persons, sounds bad but is the reality. - Ricardo MB

ReplyDeleteI think it is awesome to have the opportunity to earn some money when you need it and then you can pay it! Also we have to be sure that we are going to pay, because if not, this will be a damage for our economy. Money matters for sure, and without this mutual obligation, many people wouldn´t be able to pay a car, a house or even pay their children´s education. So my conclusion is that if we know how to manage money, we will be powerful in the future, we will be able to earn many things always remembering to pay at time and accomplishing all the payments! Also we have to remember that as everything in life, what we take, we have to return it back! Good Bye!
ReplyDeleteNo, it can not be used again. why? Simple, now a days people is selfish, it doesn’t matter that its poved that societies that work with “mutual obligation”succed, because we live in a world were people make other less for having more money, because not everyone will agree, not everyone will be fair with each other, not everyone will “pay back” when its needed. Just look it at this was, if now a days people own money to other people, and they don’t pay, what can you expect by the time you don’t have to “compromise” to pay a cow, or a barrill, or a chiken, etc. And because even thought people work with some aspects of mutual obligation; money change this entire idea for everyone.
ReplyDeleteWealthyness were measured with the number of horses, cows, chikens, things that were useful to survive, like food or things people could defend with. Now a days whealthyness can be meassure with the natural wealthyness, or with the knowledge of each individual.
I think that mutual obligation still excist, talking about in a social way, beause must of people continue having actions with each other even if it's a moral activity. But mutual obligation as an economic resourse I believe there is no way it could work nowadays. Society had changed, and there is the fact that we are not educated or used to pay (in a economic way) with mutual obligation. Now when we talk about exchange the first thing we think is money, and that's the proof that mutual obligation as a payment wouldn't work at all.
ReplyDeleteIf money didn't exist (that is something I will like to) I think the world would be so different in such a good way and societies or contries could meassure their wealthiness with the knowledge they have as an average with the community and also I will like to see or It will be nice that people could say that wealthiness is about values and moral, taking apart all the material stuff.
To conclude I will like to add a tought that I have, which is: If money didn't exist, life will be so much easier. There will be no willing of power, no porpverty, no inequality, no material mentalities, no fights, no wars.

Life would be easier if we could have this way of payment because everyone could cover its necessities and we just ask for the objects we need, not for the luxuries sometimes we want of for the latest objects just to be better than the person next door. Sincerely I think that it couldn't be possible to have "mutual obligation" as a way of exchange because it includes enough "compromise" to pay in return, and trust but the sadly truth is that people is not adapted to take seriously this compromise to payment, people doesn't have the capacity to be honest in a 100% and that's why people can't trust completely in others.
ReplyDeleteJust think about how many people own you money... What would happen if money didn't exist? Everyone would owne many things to several different persons.
Wealthiness can be measure in lifetime and moral activity... Lifetime because the longer you live means that you have a happy and complete life and to have this, it is important to be a good person to everyone even though somebody it not of your liking.
Well, I think that it would be easier for the society to have this type of business because if it wouldn’t exist the poverty, but in this society I think that this type of “economy” It wouldn’t work because anybody cares about the other people, maybe some people wouldn’t be compromise to this kind of business and anybody would pay-back to the other people because the world had change, nowadays we don’t have the same mentality or the same moral. And maybe some people would be benefit with this because if you know how to negotiate you can earn more, but some people would lose.
ReplyDeleteI think that nowadays money matters because is the base of the world, like an old English saying “”Money makes the world go round”; but in my opinion the money change the people, if money didn’t exist there will not be poverty and war in the world.
In my opinion, we are so used to money right now, that I don't think something else would work. At fist, money was invented for us to have an easier way to value everything, but the idea has been changing over the years, becoming something people are willing to kill for.
ReplyDeleteWe have become so desperate to have things we don't even need, that money is being wasted by the rich, and desired by the poor.
Money is a genius invention. Exchanging things from different value, nowadays, would be a tragedy. Causing wars and conflicts because of the debts. But who are we to measure the value of something... even someone? People has become not human anymore, material and selfish. It seems like we have to be rich to save our lives in hospitals, to have a dignity education, to give our children a comfortable life. Money changed the idea of money. The use changed in the way. And sadly, we changed too.
