The simple availability of "currency", and the willingness of the person to 
"spend" it, is the simple clue/fact to ALL commerce. No currency-no 
commerce,...... short of barter.

  As I understand it, it is a good thing to have money pass through many 
  local hands. Somehow this magically improves the local economy. Money is 
  surreal, of course, but it represents energy expended and potential 
  purchasing power. If the money leaves, so does the energy and the 
  purchasing power.
