04 The currency is the relationship
An alternative currency that just has a different name from the euro is no alternative. The new currency is the relationship.
Money measures, relationship carries
Money measures an exchange and ends with the payment. A relationship carries supply – even when the money runs out.
Trust as currency
Whoever knows the farmer gets food when the shelves are empty. Whoever carries the farm is carried by it. That is security you cannot buy.
A mechanical worldview
The euro and many exchange systems are technical solutions from a mechanical worldview. It has worn us and the world out. Relationship is alive.
A provocation for economics
Whoever is against the system and buys their food from the system is only halfway against it. Real demonstration shows how we can live well together.
