I wasn't suggesting you were a marxist! lol

Historically, primitive societies had gift economies, like the arrangements you might find in rural areas today. When my neighbor needs something, I just let him have it, then I know that he will help me when I need something.

I grew up on a farm , in a farming family, so yeah, I know how it works.
There is nothing for free though.
If you don't return the favors, (or other don't feel you are pulling your weight you won't get much help.)

It's capitalism just without a coin. The same dynamics apply, just that the payback is more subtle.

For sure, money makes it less personal, but that's due to the success of a community and lack of personal accountability through growing populations.

'Non money capitalism' is only possible through personal relationships.
We don't live in that world any longer, so money is the handiest 'favor' token for everyone to use.

In reality, money and markets are created by governments. The government created the money by spending it into existence when paying the soldiers and it created markets by demanding payment of taxes in government money.

Markets are created long before government. Governments theft of people property (or asset - tax) seems to be the way it goes, I agree - which lends itself to it being a 'natural' authority process in play.
'Might is right', and all that bs.
The fact this dynamic as emerged independently throughout pretty much all civilizations, tells me it's a system that people kind of desire...
Security in exchange for money.

On a small scale , it can, and has worked, - on a larger one we get fascism and communism..

We are still the tribal animal that settled 50,000 years ago, just with better furs and huts. Oh, and a brain that tells us we aren't.
(and their wifi was a joke! lol)
