my understanding is that this doesn't work out in practice, much the same way Christian teachings are ignored or "loopholes" are found. but boy is that the exact right attitude, on paper, to have towards money.

i wouldn't argue that societies are, trans-historically and a priori, unable to support such policies. but i think it's pretty evident that the whole web and structure of social relationships would need to be fundamentally different for that to be the case.
I mean Debt 5000 years and Dawn of Everything both are online, while there is some critique they give good counter balance to common ideas about money and credit. I do think there is value in thinking how a society in which that is the case could be (and in fact we do have societies in which jubilees happen, when people die) but Debt 5000 is a good foundational text.
