If money grew on trees, how do you think society would react?

Interesting concept, wonder what that would be like if everyone had everything they wanted...  takes away a lot of ills, but what is the void - if you can say there is one - filled with?  Just fun, fun and more fun?

This is what people have against a 'Socialist Economy' (one in which you are GIVEN your income whether you do your job or not)---unless it works as the Bible says ("if you do not work, then you do not eat"), no one has any reason to do the boring jobs when they COULD BE having fun!

Money does grow on trees. Where do you think the paper that money is made out of comes from?

It's actually more like rope or cotton, I think. That's why it lasts so long.
