What is it like to live in a country where you don't need money? Is it easier or harder than normal life? Are there things that break down without money being involved?

 It's difficult to imagine what it would be like to live in a country where money isn't needed since there are no examples of such a country in the modern world. Money serves as a medium of exchange that allows people to acquire goods and services, so it's hard to envision a society where transactions don't involve some form of exchange or trade.

However, there are a few communities around the world that operate on alternative economic systems, such as gift economies, where the emphasis is on giving and sharing rather than buying and selling. In these societies, people often share resources and contribute their skills and labor to meet the needs of the community as a whole.

Living in such a community can have its challenges, as it requires a high degree of trust, cooperation, and mutual support. There may be fewer opportunities to acquire goods or services that aren't produced locally or through communal efforts, and there may be less individual choice in how resources are allocated. However, it can also provide a strong sense of belonging, social cohesion, and shared purpose.

Even in gift economies, however, there are still things that may break down without some form of exchange. For example, if there is a shortage of a particular resource, such as food or medicine, it may be difficult to distribute it equitably without some means of tracking who has received what. Similarly, if there is a dispute over the use of a particular piece of land or a communal resource, there may need to be some form of decision-making process or arbitration to resolve the conflict. In such cases, it's possible that some form of currency or exchange may be needed, even if it's not the primary mode of economic activity.
