Accumulation of "money" evolved from basic trade for labor (you give me that axe and I'll help you build your house) to who could gather the most desired (yet limited or hard to acquire) object like gold or precious stones and trade (I like that necklace for my wife...I'll trade you these stones or make these horse shoes for it). And so on, and so on until physical "money" has become promissory notes beyond I.O.U.'s. Accumulation of those alone give's one the "promise" that they can obtain any type of barter or purchase from anyone for almost anything.
2. I don't know what your issue is with women, but you need to see a therapist. Women can and do earn their own money, ya know.
My issue with women? You can imagine whatever you like player, but if you want to make claims regarding what I think read my threads first, as here you are just talking nonsense ...
...not that your first point is making sense player...if there is no such thing as money player, then stop talking about it, as if you keep talking about things are not real, then you are imagining unreal things player, what do you expect me to do?
What does economy refer to in your text?
An economy refers to society and what people in it have to do in reality, in order to coordinate their actions in a fun way for them that can happen over and over in reality.
Why is the word economy meaningful to people in reality?
When people are trying to coordinate their actions in reality, they are free to try every way that they imagine, but not all ways take them the same time and effort to follow together over and over in reality, and the ways that take people the least time and effort to do together over and over in reality, is what the word economy is all about in reality.
How does the word economy happen in reality?
When people trying to coordinate their actions in reality, put their time and effort to find a way that takes them the least time and effort to reach their ends, that way has to be happening over and over in reality in a fun way for all people affected by this way playing out as a story in reality, or people end up thinking this way is not fun to happen over and over in reality, and then this way isn't worth their time and effort to follow over and over in reality.
Imagine you do the same thing with the same amount of money twice from its beginning until its end , but one of the times that it takes you more time and effort.
Would you choose again and again to do it when it takes you more time and effort to do it with the same amount of money, doing the same thing?
But why is the above an argument regarding what money does ?
Let's see if all here read and understand WHY I AM DOING THIS? Why is that?
To show you how many idiots around you think they know what money does...
...and keep wasting our time and effort with their endless "money" stories.
Do you understand that players here?
Really?
Yes players, really...WHAT PLAYERS?!
NOT REALLY?!!!
How is it that I know that people are reading what I write ?

My goodness, but you are quite the pompous gas bag, ain't ya bunky?
YOU open this thread bringing women into statements/and assertions that essentially only makes sense to you and the smiling joker you see in the mirror. Your screed is chock full of pretentious, pseudo-intellectual clap trap that signifies nothing. You seem to have an axe to grind about money and women, but mental constipation prevents you from adequately explaining yourself. And since you see yourself as mentally superior to all others, no critique is worth considering a true debate.
Now to anyone with a G.E.D that has a little life experience and pays attention to more than one daily news source, they clearly see there is nothing wrong with my assessment as to what is considered money and how it comes about in our society.
Since you can't fault that, you proceed to blather on about the economy and money without really saying anything of worth in terms of definitions or assessment. Essentially, you seem to think a condescending attitude and a lot of questions is a substitute for actual commitment to a conclusion or a declarative statement that has a logical point. In that respect, you're wrong ... you just come off as some joker who's a little crispy around the old cranium.
But hope springs eternal. A little schooling for you from Merriam-Webster:
Definition of economy (Entry 1 of 2)
1: the structure or conditions of economic life in a country, area, or period
also : an economic system
2a: thrifty and efficient use of material resources : frugality in expenditures
also : an instance or a means of economizing : SAVING
b: efficient and concise use of nonmaterial resources (such as effort, language, or motion)
3a: the arrangement or mode of operation of something : ORGANIZATION
b: a system especially of interaction and exchange
an economy of information
4archaic : the management of household or private affairs and especially expenses
Definition of money:
something generally accepted as a medium of exchange, a measure of value, or a means of payment
Now, if you actually want to join the rest of us in this reality and discuss my earlier post in relation to these definitions, fine. But if you just want to continue to babble and tout yourself as "intelligent" via your condescending attitude, I won't waste any more time responding to you.
Oh, and just so you know...your touting your FaceBook presence along with a Metro card will get you on the bus. Millions of people do blogs and such, and among the millions more on the web, they are bound to get an audience. You're not unique, bunky....no matter what the guy in the mirror whispers to you.
Now, cut the BS and get some therapy to get over your issues with women. Play on, bunky.
