Money facilitates trade. The problem is when Money itself becomes a commodity to be bought, sold, traded etc. That leads to the world being run by bankers, moneylenders and userers. If your country has a 'national debt' then it means everyone is working to make a banker richer. The history of the Greenback Dollar is interesting to look into, for example.
