Let me rephrase my observation into a direct question, because you obviously cannot grasp the difference between money and recompense.

Do you believe barter -trading one thing of value for another thing of value - is immoral and should be illegal?

Here’s a nice YouTube explanation of the free market by the highly regarded conservative, Walter E. Williams. (Excerpts from the speech “The Entrepreneur As American Hero”)

It actually answers the question you raised.

But... let’s ask some questions to that question...

Do you believe that money is not the acceptable medium of exchange for goods and services? Do you believe it to be inadequate? Why did our ancestors invent it in the first place?
