I get currency as a fundamental concept, like I don't want to spend all day figuring out how many pints of goat's milk will power my car for X miles, but I agree that it's become far too abstract to be tenable

That's not how shit worked before money the need for precise tracking rather than general damn erins been carrying the whole neighborhood pretty hard and what has Steve even for anybody lately and how do I get Hector back for that cup of flour he spotted me in a way that will make him smile type thoughts a society that runs on making things work or making people happy runs better than a society that deliberately grinds to a halt every five seconds based on petty obsessive grievance adjacent bullshit believe it or not
