To remove lending from society would have been to hinder the progress of a society. Look at Muslims for evidence of this.
How would the US Gov borrowed so much to do so much if it had no ability to borrow? Freeways is an example of this. If the US Gov did not borrow to pay for Freeways way back when, it would have not taken over as the richest country the world has ever seen.

PS. Do not be fooled by our National Debt either - the US Gov has already worked it out to only pay $.05 on the dollar of it. This is your first clue as a citizen that saving money is a bad idea, regardless what you were told by your parents.
