The threads about transition finance and other economic issues reminded me of a really interesting essay I read a while back. The idea of money based on 'demurrage' is particularly interesting. A system in which 'money' loses value if it concentrates and does circulate would certainly be problematic, but does more closely reflect the natural systems of constant nutrient cycling, decay, renewal, etc.
