About

What if money-the tool built to make life easier-has become the force quietly keeping humanity from thriving?

In Should Money Be Obsolete?, Dr. A.S. Gailey challenges one of the deepest assumptions of modern life: that money-based trade is not only necessary, but the best system available. Drawing from history, economics, psychology, politics, health care, food systems, media, industry, and government, Gailey examines how money creates conflicts of interest between buyers and sellers, citizens and institutions, workers and employers, and even patients and the industries meant to heal them.

Rather than simply criticizing capitalism or calling for socialism or communism, Gailey asks readers to think beyond familiar ideological categories. Could private enterprise still exist without money? Could innovation, motivation, and resource distribution function in a system no longer driven by profit? And could such a transition happen peacefully, gradually, and practically?

For readers ready to question the economic foundation of everyday life, this book offers a bold invitation: imagine what society could become if money were no longer at its center.
