Correctingtons. Literally it's just digital numbers in the ether. As that nice chap in the video explained, we get a printout of our wages (unless you work for bellers), pay for the roof over your head and your car via a monthly payment, wave a card over a machine for food and whatnot.... mental.
Actually, it's people who define an inanimate, almost imaginary construct such as money as 'evil' who are mental. But that's another conversation.
