It nicely points out the problems with the kind of money we have. The question is what to use instead.

*nods* The only long-term solution I can see is some sort of scarcity-less economics ala Iain M. Banks' Culture. However, that will have to wait for tech that can make this possible. With luck, we will only have to wait for 2-3 decades before it becomes possible.
