Shortsightedness driven by greed does not, in any way, negate money equaling power.

Then let me attack it from a different direction: can you have power in a society that does not have money?

[–] Jax 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Within that isolated society? Sure.

If your goal was to argue semantics then I don't know why I'm entertaining this. Yes, in an imaginary society that is 1) somehow not influenced by modern society and 2) somehow also avoids currency - power dynamics will obviously take different shapes.

Do you realize how meaningless that example is?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

I'm working outword to find a path in.

If a society can have power without money, then can the two overlap perfectly in any society?

To use a more concrete example, how do unions ever have power in our society? They tend not to have money, or at least very little in proportion to the business owners.
