The first edition of my book, The End of Money and the Future of Civilization, was published by Chelsea Green Publishing in 2009. While it remains
as relevant today as it was when first published the printed book has been out of print for several years. But, having had the rights reverted to me by my publisher, I am making the entire book available for free in PDF format. You can read it or download it HERE. If you would like a hard copy of the first edition used copies can still be found on Amazon.com, Abe books, Thrift books and elsewhere.
Better still, you can avail yourself of the new revised and expanded 2024 edition which I have been working on for almost two years and is almost complete. Eighteen chapters have already been posted and can be freely read or download HERE.

Beyond Money 
Who is this simplistic and offensive egomaniac Bill Hicks and what is he dong infecting my computer? It was bad enough listening to his self aggrandizing drivel the first time but now it has replayed itself on my computer at the touch of the space bar. I could not find a way to shut it off! There was no screen open showing the video. It was just blasting out of my audio like the most annoying infomercial ever. “Oh the solution is so simple. Just buy food for the poor and forget it. Problem solved. And oh. Explore space too.” I nominate Bill Hicks to walk his talk. He should shoot himself into space. No space ship. No space suit. Just him in his black cowboy hat. Being all hat and no cattle how did he manage to leave this audio shit in my machine?

Wow, seems like an over reaction. He’s simply saying that there is plenty enough to go around, and that we have some choice about our consciousness. We can be driven like sheep by the puppet masters, or we can decide to play a different game.
I have no idea what the problem is with your computer, but I doubt it’s related to the video I embedded in my blog.
BTW, he’s long since deceased.
