Michel,et al,
The problem with this kind of talk it does not offer a way of real significance to credibly switch from a monetary system to a non-monetary one. Transfinancial Economics hold the key to all that when read carefully, and understood properly.
Morever, any kind of made up currency(s) is unlikely to take over the world unless ofcourse everyone accepts it which is unlikely...So, I just concentrate on TFE...

Pertinent to that is the
release a new
book from EVOLVER EDITIONS/North Atlantic Books. Edited by

and yours truly,

My essay is titled, Local

In his introduction to the
book, Daniel
talks about the emergence of a conscious culture to challenge
Wall Street's
consumerist paradigm. You can read it here: http://www.realitysandwich.com/impossible_alternative.
