Money and sustenance

One man’s money is another man’s work. Giving a man money is same as giving another man work for that money. Thats how money works, linking across space and time. Otherwise even if you had lots of it, it would be useless.

However, having none of it leads to self capable dependence if its not a voluntary society, and low of it leads to partial dependence, and like even most most people in this lazy world, cannot survive even if they are capable and not lazy due to lack of means to achieve sustenance.

So if people are capable and resources are available to their capability, then availability of money does not matter.

If resources are inaccessible by natural-action based means, but accessible using money (monetized goods), then money matters.

If resources are not available, and anything and everything is capitalized, then money is life.
