I have always pondered this. He is the scenerio:
In Star Trek, they claim they got rid of money. So this means, no one is rich or poor. obviously this would cause problems. but the driver for the society was to "better themselves morally." So work would be a satifaction, rather than earning money.
Getting rid of money would stop most crimes since you could probably go and just get a mercedes from the dealership, rather than stealing it.
Am I missing anything? Anyone think this could ever work?
