 Rather than access to the things we need being constrained by the ability to trade or pay money, an open access society promotes a mutual understanding that everyone in that society is fully supported with (at least) their basic living requirements unconditionally. Rather than access to the things we need being constrained by the ability to trade or pay money, an open access society promotes a mutual understanding that everyone in that society is fully supported with (at least) their basic living requirements unconditionally.

This is called [[:explicit_vs_implicit_trade|implicit trading]].+So for example, if someone cuts your lawn, there is no expectation that you must reciprocate some equivalent task or resource with that person.
