At first we had the barter system which caused alot of headaches and then we got the monetary system. This system is not 100% efficient ask any economist.

The big blue ( IBM) came up in the news. They don’t come up as often as google or facebook but when they do they sure have a good story to tell.
Well big blues computer managed to beat humans in a game of Jeopardy. This might not seem much at first but this capability means very near in the future a computer will do a better job of providing a variety of services. So your next doctor or insurance agent might be a computer from IBM

The only problem is to avoid the mass hysteria and resistance we need to change our economy from a monetary based system to something different every individual is assured access to all the basic needs of life.
