Unity or Mass Chaos?

Do you think the sudden absence of money in our society would mean the downfall of religious sects and encourage unity or mass chaos?

    Half and half, actually. Some people would swing heavily to religion to give them a center for a life no longer based on possessions. Some people would swing the opposite way, since survival would require taking other people's things and lives to survive. Some people would be able to adapt to a barter society, but a large number of them would not bother, just take what they wanted.

    The sudden absence of money in our society would mean the downfall of our government as it would indicate that the U.N. has finally taken over and the U.S.A. would be a third world slave to the socialists.

    We would go on a trade system. Mormons have actually planned for this they would stay united and take care of their members.
