Interesting theory! I like the idea of relationships mattering than the next shiny in life. In the case of your scenario I wonder what would happen if humanity survived the zombies and aliens and fully recovered. Would we just naturally end up worshiping money (a proxy for resources) again?

Money will be back.

Guns, ammo, food, water etc. will become valuable commodities. Natural bartering will lead to money again.
