Capitalism
Is not the existence of money, per se
But the movement of that money: hence currency
When money isn't moving, it is non-existent - that is: it is not currency
Capitalism needs liquidity to move: there is no trickling
hence the real measures are measures of flow: balance sheets of accumulations are illusory
in that simply having money doesn't make a person a capitalist - what is required is that that money be put in motion
If we had a view of an economy more like a game of hot potato than a game of musical chairs
where the difference is between the goal of keeping moving vs the goal of being caught chairless
today, the game seems to be keep away
funny how these games are with us our whole lives
there are games that bring people together
and games that value one person over others
personally I prefer games that help connect me
