Why would technological advancements stop in a world with no money?
It wasn't capitalism that invented satalite communications, nuclear energy, the internet etc, it was brilliant minds. Capitalism just made it possible in a world were resourses cost money.
In a world with no money, these scientists and brilliant minds don't dissapear. Instead they have better resourses (because they are free) to invent better technology. I think, in a world with no money, technology advances quicker than in a capitalist society.

That's just silly. I can't believe there's still educated people that believe in such miths.

Why?
Genius' aren't driven by money.

Name a poor genius... Knoweldge used to just be the past time of the rich. The people in the past like Darwin weren't geniuses. They were largely just rich.
Arcimedes for example is a genius who was motivated by money.

I said that (the majority) weren't motivated by money, not that they were poor. I doubt Darwin came up with the theory of evolution to pay the bills. More likely was on a quest for knowledge. Darwin was a genius, how can you say he wasn't?
Einstien worked in the swiss patent office doing physics in his spare time when he wrote his 5 papers in 1905.
