Day 149: Help Resolve an Intractable Global Geopolitical Crisis

"Some bring spark out there must be able to come up with an answer to the world's various problems. Could it be you? Put your mind to it for a couple of minutes."

I've actually always thought that we could benefit pretty greatly from abolishing the current system of currency. Money hasn't really helped anything, and everything could still operate the same way without it, given certain guidelines of course.

After graduation from high school, people would be required to either attend college or get a job (if they choose to attend college, they're required to get a job afterwards). After getting verified employment, the person does not have to pay for any goods or services as long as they consume only what they need. Those without a job will have some sort of separate unemployment verification, where they will still not be required to pay for goods or services but have a restricted consumption limit.

Using such a system (with more detail and thought, clearly) I think the world could gain much greater economic equality, which I think we can all agree would be a much welcomed change.
