You can even work more, inside the system, or do what you like - outside of it.

rahl - in my system you can have everything you want. If there are enough people willing to work for it. You add a "module" to the system and say "those who work here, also get a cruise ship, besides the basics". You want it - you get it.
What you want now - is to involve me, and right now I get involved because I can't simple access the basics, and I don't care about cruise ships, cars, or whatever.
A system without money existed for the most part of our history. And it worked. No police, no homeless, no people working like crazy.

Since humans started walking upright and grouped together there has been some form of currency. Be it teeth, bones, berry's, furrs, barter and trade...all are forms of currency and have been around for virtually all of human history.

I just don't understand how your system would work. What module? And who say's "those who work here, also get a cruise ship"? Who is this person that is in charge of handing out the cruise ships?
