Well, I totally understand the concept of money and how it can be viewed in various paradigms. Of course there have always been local exchange systems and ad hoc trading, etc. But seriously, what real society actually exists today that has absolutely no money? Does this same society have computers? Does this really a self-contained society that really does not have money, or is this just a small group inside another society who has decided to -- internally -- pretend like they don't have money[1]?
