That's not Capitalism, that's called Usury. Different.

We're trying to have a mature discussion based on facts and evidence, so if you're going to be doing things like answering your own questions and giving no logical basis for your arguments then I ask you to kindly leave. There's no place for that here.
Thanks.

Would you care to elaborate on the differences then...
I am not a capitlaist nor am I a communist. But I will tell you this there is something wrong with the system we have in place today. It is destructive. How can you have a fair society when the gap between rich and poor continues to grow and the disparity is the greatest seen in history.
How can you have a economy that has to make more every year to survive on a planet of finite resources. This model will lead to the eventual destruction of our planet.
It is common sense so peeps get up from your brainwashed ideas.. Wake up and smell the coffee...!
