 Separate money from the state and see humanity flourish. Same goals.

The state may or may not play a role. Personally IDGAF, but I care that humans have what they need to thrive and be free. 

I align more with left libertarian/libertarian socialism in that regard. 
 why is the ability for a government to help people always associated with money printing? cities in the US used to pride themselves on the large beautiful institutions they would build for the mentally challenged before the prison industrial complex took over that role. these facilities were made on a harder money standard. money is used to express the values of the holder and just because we are currently told that is must be printed to help people doesn't mean its true. helping people is a choice regardless of the hardness of the money.
