gollark: Making a stock market, really, is just cart/horse misordering brought on by people wanting to bring in the shiny parts of the modern economy without the rest.
gollark: But a stock market won't work unless you somehow get everyone to subscribe to boring things like accounting and profit sharing and stuff.
