They are cross fungible and leverage able, so this is a silly empty distinction.
But money has historically been more effective at producing or controlling power than the other way around.

- exe34 2y agothat's right, the neanderthals didn't use gold, they hit each other with clubs.
- ffsm8 2y agoI'm not sure I can agree with that, because historically speaking would include the time we had nobility. And in that time period, having money would not provide you with power, as nobles were beyond the law and could simply cease it for themselves.
