In a way of life without money, our goods and services will be free
according to need. Our necessities and common luxuries will be
available on a help yourself basis at your local store. The more
“expensive” items, such as housing will be available on a priority
basis. Thus, the homeless will get housing ahead of those living in
crowded quarters. How do we determine who has the higher priority?
Perhaps a local board elected by the people in the neighborhood could
perform that function.

Health care will be free to everyone. There will be no need for
medical coverage. There will be no need for doctors to carry
malpractice insurance. Of course, doctors and nurses will still have
to undergo their rigorous education and training as they do today to
earn their licenses. The FDA will also perform its function.

In short, our doctors will be free to concentrate on their patients.
Prescription drugs will be available to those who need them. Drug
companies will cooperate rather than compete with one another. They
will carry out research together and share patents, ideas and
knowledge. Profit will no longer be a hindrance.
