I don't believe the bold section above. You can clearly structure an economy with zero credit. It would likely have slower GDP growth than one with credit. It would likely be a more stable system as well.


chris martenson's crash course site has a segment of 'what price growth' and he makes the basic argument that over-levered 'growth' (debt) is false growth and causes mis-allocation of capital that eventually leads to speculative excess (as of course has been amply demonstrated) and that stable, sustainable growth is the best way to strong economy
