Money is used to quantify debt, so it can be extracted by the powerful.
Debt is the glue of a health community.
Children owe their parents, and parents owe their children.
Unrelated people care for the orphaned young of the deceased, because they may have had a debt relationship to the parents. The community remembers the debts owed between others, and is one basis for reciprocity.
These debts are independent of monetization.
Debts are owed and replayed, but never fully eliminated unless you want to break all bonds with another.
I'm some cultures, paying off a debt in full is a strong insult. It means I no longer need you, or want to associate.
Debt is as old as community. It's absolutely necessary for a healthy society.
Money sterilizes the healthy social aspects of debt.
Money was created for wars. It's antisocial in the most fundamental sense.

I don't see buzzwords. Also - not quite fair to diss Tom's notes as meaningless.
