Okay "money is unnatural" and yet humanity developed these "unnatural economies" as a means of exchange so I'm not going to pretend what is natural or unnatural. Rather, I think we would be better of re-examining our societal and community situations first before addressing any situations regarding economics. I do not believe economic reformation is even possible without a small, cohesive community similar in as many facets as possible while still allowing individual growth. In other words: I believe the critical period for existing in the most "natural" form of economic situation is usually the beginning of a community (I think of early, early Rome when it was mostly a gang where all were united in a ethno-culture, religion, and motivation and had a "tribal" mentality. Contrast this to the later Rome which was a bloated machine that ate itself alive).

These "loans" you rail against are simply natural in a society that has no groundings for trust, honor, or relation with one another. There is no easy solution either as the Communists painfully discovered when they tried to form a community based entirely on abstract philosophy which mostly resulted in devastation and artificial community based on executions and "forced identity". Therefore, I think that complaining about "loans" while simultaneously speaking of a "global community" in the positive is a self-defeating concept.
