    We invented the idea of currency and that ruined everything. Until we invent a replicator we are stuck working.

      LoL. Currency has nothing to do with scarcity.

      Currency is an invention of necessity. It permits bartering at a much greater scale. It’s been a feature of pretty much every society, ever.
