Puts me in mind of the economy

If Prev. is right, the economy only suffers when the circular movement of getting money and spending it ... stops. Money has to keep moving in order to have a "robust" economy.

So that would mean ... ACCUMULATION of money is bad for an economy, unless it's being loaned out and being spent by others.

It would also mean that ANY kind of money would work, as long as people believe it has value and spend it and accept it for goods and services.

Just some ruminating there...
