Economy has becomed the basis of human being , and it's in that position for a very long time, evolutioned through centuries of human development. Every time something big happened in the human history you can most certainly connect it with - money. Wars, battles, peace, architectural wonders or successful merchant republics? Art? Philosophy? French revoltion? Well, I'm sure everyone knows that. But making money flow through civic relations more freely is something new and revolutionary. Finally we are on a doorstep of having an financially uncontrolled or part-controlled society which will be having many benefits for civilization if accompanied by a humanistic cause. :)
