"If one has nothing desirable to trade, money won’t fix the problem. Money ‘lubricates’ the barter exchange, it does not drive it. Producing something needed/desired does. Money is not wealth. Having complementary or a diversity of money systems does not resolve a situation where trading partners are competitively poorly matched. It does, unfortunately, create more opportunities for obfuscation and abuse."
