if wealth is distributed evenly...

The precise point is that greed is not natural. People "work for a living" is the result of an artificially created notion of scarcity. This in turn lead people to hoard money and resources (the basic definition of greed). Then greed is the continuous fear of losing what has already been accumulated. A interesting example is on the solidarity experiments conducted in several psychology faculties. People's decision to hoard and to deprive other's access to something comes from how much of it is available. If you had to work for something that is scarce you will probably try to work more and accumulate it. If you are offered to work for something that is plenty and abundant you simply won't work and will simply take how little you need to go around instead of busting your back to hoard it unnecessarily. Additionally, the notion of genetical predetermination is a pseudo-scientific myth printed by media on the undereducated society. To say, "greed is genetically imprinted on someone's mind", would make any serious psychologist lol so hard they'll fall in tears before explaining you all of the empirical evidence of why such sentence is at best misinformed.

Exactly. We need to get rid of the monetary system because it is fake and not based on anything tangible. Something tangible has to be in use such as a trade/barter system. X amount of hours of work equals y amount of days of rent for a home, etc. With our current system someone can just ask for a loan, and if they qualify they now have access to X amount of hours of work (money) without having done anything other than signing a piece of paper. How can the paper have any value with nothing to support it? Thus we have people buying houses that are too big for them and then in five years or less they lose them to bankruptcy because the original mortgage was based on "money" pulled out of the air and not on anything solid - like food, water, or physical labor.

But then we get into the issue of land ownership. The country (nation) owns the land and citizens rent it (real estate) from the government. The basis of land ownership is a joke - because how can anyone own land? You might own the right to use the land - but you cannot actually own it. Thus before the monetary system was even created the land based system was flawed.

What is worse is now we are running out of useful land because of over population. The vast majority of wildlife on the planet is gone and at this rate all we will have is humans and concrete and steel. How can we fix this? Personally - it all scares the hell out of me and whether Zeitgeist got it's facts right or not - this is a wake up call!
