Capitalism begins to break down when the primary driver of purchasing power is availability of debt. Long term debt is particularly antithetical to the efficiencies promoted by a free market.
Add on the fact that a quasi-government body is the primary provider of that debt and not just through the central banking system but in many cases direct to consumers.
