I’m not saying that monetary economies developed from barter economies. I’m saying so much more than that. I guess my language was a bit strong because I found this video to be too simplistic for my preferences. Bartering and money are not mutually exclusive. Bartering and capitalism are not mutually exclusive. Bartering and feudalism are not mutually exclusive. You can most certainly barter within any type of economy. That’s what actually happens every day, in fact. But, you see, that’s what I find lacking in this video. It’s too brief for my taste and, to satisfy me as a viewer, would need to talk about political economies, their different forms and structures, etc. I have nothing against the OP. I limited my comment to the video. If the OP found the video enlightening, I think that’s great. It’s probably useful, just too lacking for me.
