Sometime ago, I researched the web about the "Zeitgeist Movement".

Claims to be a worldwide, nonprofit, nonviolent org. advocating sustainability and social equality.
They wish to see capitalism, nation-states and parliaments abolished.
They also wish to see adoption of a moneyless global socio-economic system.
In this aspirational system, all humans would share earth's resources, equitably, commonly and sustainably.

In the Resource-based Economy (RBE) earth's resources will be available aplenty, without scarcity.
This will increasing comfort for humanity. Animals don't worry about paying for resources. They enjoy all planet earth's resources.

Read and heard about this, from Zeitgeist'ers:
(*) the monetary economy is clearly in collapse all around us. It isn't stable or sustainable anywhere in the world.
(*) this collapse begs a need for a viable alternative. That alternative may be the resource-based economy, or it may be something else. What the purists call, their "resource-based economy" may be in transition -- morphing into some hybrid to eventually supplant the monetary economy.
