It has a lot to do with so-called "capitalism", which is a harmful and
damaging concept, in that it equates soul-damning usury with the free
exchange of goods and services for money.

The whole point of cob is that it helps one get out of the vicious loop
of usury.  As soon as a person starts talking in terms of "capitalism"
instead of "usury", they muddy the issue and obscure the benefits of
cob.
