Political economy }.
See under {
Political }.
Syn : {
Economy }, {
Frugality }, {
Parsimony }.
Economy avoids all waste and extravagance ,
and applies money to the best advantage ;
frugality cuts off indulgences ,
and proceeds on a system of saving .
The latter conveys the idea of not using or spending superfluously ,
and is opposed to lavishness or profusion .
Frugality is usually applied to matters of consumption ,
and commonly points to simplicity of manners ;
parsimony is frugality carried to an extreme ,
involving meanness of spirit ,
and a sordid mode of living .
Economy is a virtue ,
and parsimony a vice .

1913 Webster ]
I have no other notion of economy than that it is the parent to liberty and ease . --
