Exactly. Money is a useful construct, but if you look at everything associated with it it's insane. A tool for tracking the value of goods and services has resulted in wall street, crypto currency, and people burying gold in their yards. It's become a status symbol to hold this placeholder for labor without doing labor.

I'm not necessarily on board with a moneyless society anytime soon, but I am definitely currency critical.

Currency is an excellent example.

Groups or organizations are another.
