The world is designed in a way that value is always needed. It is either given or taken. This values are literally something man place on almost everything.

Without human valuing something, i doubt if it would, on its own, assume such value. 

If you look around, you will see that we have placed value on almost anything. Hardly is there anything that is valueless. Perhaps, only undiscovered matters are without value for now.

If a man makes a paint, he places value on it. If he carved out anything from natural matter like rocks, stones, trees, etc., he will place value on it.

This idea of placing value on things has been practiced since ancient era. We met these things and continue doing it.

This is what we use to create scarcity for natural stuffs or man made stuffs from natural matter.

In some cases, values are placed on these things by government to acquire money from citizens and especially, international bodies.

So oftentimes, money serves as the reason we turn ordinary things to extraordinary. 

How valuable would gold have been if it is treated like every other matter on planet earth. How valuable would diamond be had man not place much value on it against other stones out there.

The love of money is believed to be the root of all evil. The lack of it is evil itself. A man without money and no means to acquire it on sight is capable of doing any evil. Such man can commit any crime.

A world without such tender which in turn made us place much value on natural stuffs might be better.

Don't forget that most crimes in the world today have their root in money. It serves as the motivating factor that made people commit or engage in crimes.  

Terrorism is world problem today and those who thrive in it have sponsors. These sponsorship is money based. They do this thing for whatever reason known to them but through money.

What about drugs, smuggling, robbery, etc. They all have unquenchable thirst for money. They just want to keep acquiring and storing them somewhere.

Imagine money, a major legal tender is not present, perhaps, we wont be facing these crimes that is taking many lives away these days.

No doubt, there would be other crimes but these ones which take many lives yearly would not be there.

Perhaps, death recorded from piracy, cartel, smuggling, robbery, etc., wouldn't have happened if legal tender was not present at all. 

Like the case of mouth eating food, a world where there is no money would be less evil and the root of all evil would be something else.

So i believe a world without money, the need to acquire it and the stress that follows having it would be much better than what we have today.

Thanks for your time.
