Does credit count as capital?

I wouldn't include it, but I'm sure an at least plausible argument could be made.

I did however forget time.

Boro,

I'm not happy to see the old avatar come back [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. That thing bothers me like no other.

I was just asking because in the current creditalist economic system most "capital" is credit.

[Borodog]

right, but that's capital in the finacial sense, rather than in the economics sense of capital goods, tools, machinery, equipment, etc., which is what I was refering to; the physical factors of production. Money and credit can get you *access* to the factors of production, but I don't think that really makes it a capital good, so to speak. Although again, you're perfectly right in that it is *financial* capital.

I think we've killed the joke, such as it was. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
