With uncanny prescience, Karl Marx wrote in Das Kapital (from his doctrine of the theory of surplus value ? in an updated translation): "Owners of capital will stimulate the working class to buy more and more of expensive goods, houses and technology, pushing them to take more and more expensive credits, until their debt becomes unbearable. The unpaid debt will lead to bankruptcy of banks, which will have to be nationalised, and the State will have to take the road which will eventually lead to communism."

This is the last place I expected to find fellow Communists.
