Apologies for this post I know it is not the right board, but there is no more philosophy board so I guess this is were I found the best fit for this mental exercise.
So I've been wondering much about this idea of a reality-based economy. In such a world realism rules:
- there would be no debt since debt is not something material nor real. No one could pay another with a promise, and no currency would ever be emitted out of thin air.
- trading doesn't exist, since we know that there are no truly fungible items in reality, no two grains of rice are ever the same. In other words, items have no value of equivalence to trade. Only elementary particles with the same quantum properties are truly identical and tradeable.
- There would be no days of the week, nor months, for they reflect nothing in reality. (today is not a Wednesday, in case you're wondering)
- There would be no private property since physical objects, though they have many properties that can be measured, none have a "belongs to" trait.

What other quirky characteristics would such a place have?
