As I began to write this article I found that I had run into yet another duality ( I have in other writing described dual archetypal forms and functions as being a basic primal way the universe works and very integral to what it is ). All this began to pop out at me again as I tried to describe what I thought was wrong with money, and why money has been falling apart lately.
I came to feel that the current form of money is competitive, abstract, a mere quantitative commodity, non-local, and non-personal. And I came to feel that that was Ok as long as there was also a kind of "money" that had opposite characteristics. I think we need for some "money" to be cooperatively-created and cooperation- fostering, money that is less abstract, that is more quality-oriented, money that tends to stay local, and finally, money that has a personal aspect to it.
