Not at all. You can build a house without any money. You can eat without any money. Why is this so complicated?

Where can I find magically free building materials and food without owning land or knowing somebody who owns land (costs money) and is willing to let me use it for free? Please tell me where this magical fictional place exists in a modern capitalistic society.

Thanks for pointing out the problem. I'm not really anti capitalist though.

Look. My point is, nobody really wants to work because they need to buy things to survive. Sure, lots of people just want to work but they'd do it for free if you let them.

How does that give us the realistic option to survive without money, as you say is so simple to do?
