Assuming your money is part of the total $1000 the economy never

office increases it's portion of the $1000 dollars by $10.50 at the
same time you lose $10.50 of your portion.

Does that include the time between the purchase of the money order and
its cashing?  During that time it seems that there is $10 more in
circulation--not actual, minted coinage, but legal tender nonetheless.

Sure - The money is just changing forms.  Think of it as making change.
