With money, we throw away more food than it would take to end world hunger. With money, in the US we have 20+ empty homes per homeless person. With money, you have concepts like "pre-existing conditions." With money, everything is made of oil (plastic) and corn (syrup).
You don't plant dollar bills. You don't put dollar slurry in a 3D printer and print a house from it. If you sew a dollar bill inside someone's chest in place of a failing organ, they're gonna die.
I tell you what, y'all gon leave that baby alone....
I don't have a clever ending. Or a major narrative. I just think the way we use money is stupid. Why not use units of time as a currency (get paid in days) - that's what we're selling away for money anyway.
During the pandemic, once given back the time they have to sell to live people became carpenters, gardeners, painters, musicians, adventurers, athletes, and so much more.
With money, we wake up go to work at our excel jobs or service job eat recover from and/or prepare for work during the week and then try to squeeze as much as we can of the rest of our lives into the remaining two days (if you're one of the lucky ones).
