You are too ingrained with a monetary system you cant even imagine a system in which one doesn’t exist.

I can imagine it, but only in a post-scarcity society. It just doesn’t seem plausible to me until we are at least a Type 1 Civilization, more likely Type 2.

When two people want or need the same limited resource how do you decide who gets it? Money solves that issue. While it is a poor solution, I have yet to see something that wouldn’t have just as many problems, though admittedly different ones

Even if we had post-scarcity potential, I am not at all sure human nature would allow it. Some people have a fundamental need to stand above other people, others have a fundamental need to collect things, and then there are takers. Takers being those who would gladly take from others but would never give away their own stuff without being forced, even if it was pure excess.

We live in a time where automation and robotics could allow us much more freedom and dignity

I agree that we are definitely approaching an era where robotics/automation could replace the need for most human labor. Though I don’t really think we are there yet. One of my favorite sayings a few years back was, “humans should be in the business of thinking and creating, not laboring.” Sure I can buy a “perfect” machine made wooden chair but there is a certain character and richness to having one an artisan made.

I was a fan of taxing the labor of robots that replaced humans and using those funds to cover a UBI long before I ever heard the name Andrew Yang, though even that doesn’t get rid of the monetary system.
