Otherwise, if they are keeping it in the bank, bonds, stocks, or real estate, they money doesn't stop moving. In bank accounts, it gets lent to others, and they spend it. In stocks, bonds, and real estate, you're buying the investment from someone else who wanted to sell it, presumably so they could have money for something else. They may turn around and invest it in stocks or bonds or real estate, or they may buy something. Either way, the money's not just sitting idle. What may be hurt is consumer spending. That's not the same thing as the Economy (with a capital E). There are lots of things besides big screen TVs to buy with your money.
