It's not that simple, people don't inherently want to work together because humans are in themselves dangerous. You can already do this, money and capitalism doesnt stop you or anyone. (Good Samaritan)
Money just facilitates the saving and passage because structurally before corporations it was meant to be about family structure. It's why all big corps want to replace your family and want to separate you from your actual being. (Spirited Away)
My time is compensated by the idea that I can store it phisically. Money isn't the problem, it's tech. It outsources jobs and redirects massive ammounts of cashflow. Along with making you compete universally rather than in your own local area. It isn't bad but it can become much worse.
Most folks dont have their own physical money anymore. It's in a bank, a number on a number. Direct deposit means you never have to stress yourself, or own yourself. Ai at some point will be able to speculate on groceries and change the cost routinely. Like walgreen's digital display fridge, went away due to cost upkeep - but it'll return.
Keep blaming money for scientific progress and how man uses it. People hate money, yet they dont understand the basic processes that permeate their existance. You are built on the legacy of millions of people, thousands of years, and constant turmoil. Yet you desire to return to further suffering? When you cannot even handle the wanting of this one?
Suffer your pain, overcome it. Stop wishing for pain unknown, unenviable and yet you wish the uncertainty of basic life.
I say this as someone who so to yearns for such a time. Who's brother was a runaway and lived the life I wish I had. Sadly, I have love and kindness, structure to support and if I too run - who will tend the flame?
The only way to return is through also relinquishing any and all comfort you are assured. No one stops you - but your want. Instead temper it for the greater of humanity, not for the betterment of your emotional quandaries. We have a tomorrow guaranteed today, that is a luxury of society - debt is the reliance in others.
