Who here read David Graeber's "Debt: The First 5000 Years?" I'm curious what peoples' thoughts on it. I already have my own thoughts on it, but for something I'm working on I'm interested in hearing ...

I took out of it the idea the idea credit style human relationship money is foundational to him- and that totally anonymous money is correlated to violence and large scale slavery type societies where the individual is ripped from their social relations.

I felt it was thin on the details on the social benefits of careful accounting and rather glamorourized personal relationships. It also ascribed alot of weight to the relationship of money to conflict- but I felt sovereign individual, which I'm reading out, feels more I tuitively clear to me on that topic.

I want more time because it is THICK.😹
