PPS: I reflected my opinion. We should find a perfect copy protection,
get rid of money and than start barter trade. I made barter trade
without money relatively often in my life. I bet a lot of people with
intellectual work that is perfectly protected, that can't be copied,
wont find somebody willing to trade off bread and butter for this
intellectual work. A lot of people only can survive, get too much money
for their piss, because they made the rules. We've got money and
unfortunately some intellectual work is more pricey than something e.g.
to eat, while both should have got the same price (I don't claim that
intellectual work is less important). Let's get rid of money and start
barter trade, this is also a good way to support good intellectual work
and to get rid of all the intellectual piss.
