What involves the direct exchange of goods and services without the use of money as a medium of exchange ?

the answer would be the barter system

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.

i know right it’s not fair some people are just so rude unlike you your actually trying to get to know people and i think that is very kind
