		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;But You seem to dont&#039; understand, that this kinf of relationship (being a neigbhour, not necessarily realtionship that don&#039;t require using money) are rare. Too rare to plan something on the basis of it.&lt;/blockquote&gt; 
 
Of course it is rare in today&#039;s society. But I&#039;m talking normative, I&#039;m talking about how it &lt;i&gt;ought&lt;/i&gt; to be and why, when that is so, the concept of money or markets does not apply and will not spontaneously pop-up as you stated. </description>

		<description>Egalitarianism does not mean &quot;richer&quot; because that&#039;s a comparative word. It doesn&#039;t apply. In an egalitarianism society, you may be &quot;richer&quot; than a wage-slage (in both material wealth and positive freedom) but you&#039;ll probably be poorer than a multi-millionaire today. 
 
A commune is a organizational form, it&#039;s a way for people to organize around the geographic area of their residence. As such, it would define all aspects of economical, social and political life. </description>

		<description>And if commune commune isn&#039;t for easier distrubution sake (and more egalitarian - to make everybody equally rich), then - what it is for? 
 
I understood why You wrote about neighbour. But You seem to dont&#039; understand, that this kinf of relationship (being a neigbhour, not necessarily realtionship that don&#039;t require using money) are rare. Too rare to plan something on the basis of it. </description>

		<description>Firstly, the purpose of a commune is not simply to facilitate distribution.  
 
Secondly, I made the neighbour example to show you what kind of relationships do not require money. </description>

		<description>Not everybody can be suplied in everything they need or want by their neghbours. If it was not true, than no communes would be needed by anyone. </description>

		<description>I&#039;m not going to prevent people from using anything as money, I&#039;m going to push for a social system where the use of anything as money is not required and I&#039;m going to push for a mindframe that people won&#039;t be always looking to make an exchage. 
 
You mention stuff like butter and so but you fail to ask  why would it have to be an exchange. When you go to your neighbour to ask him for some sugar because you&#039;re out, does he ask you for money? When you ask a stranger for a cigarette, does he ask you for money? 
 
So no, I don&#039;t think money is a good deal, for various reasons that are quite off topic. </description>

		<description>Role of money can by played by anything. People were using as money cigarets, stones and salt. How You want to prevent people to treat something sa money? 
 
Why it isn&#039;t easier? If i want butter and can give You only cigarets, when You want strawberies for butter, how it is easier than buying butter by money? So, if someone thinking about joining the commune, isn&#039;t it better to him, if the commune allow to sharing money also? Because even if he wont get what he want from commune, it is possible he will be able to buy that by money from the commune. I think this is good deal.  Don&#039;t You? </description>
