Borrow a friends car, rent a car, save up money to buy a car would all be better options than a high interest loan, no?

Cars will be cheaper relative to hours worked, like they used to be. Measure prices in terms of hours worked - that's what honest economists (I am by training) do. Also, sound money incentivizes competition in terms of quality, so I expect cars will last a lot longer. And 3d printing raises the possibility of printing custom cars on demand, cheaply. It wouldn't be cheap right now, but it will be. In America, its hard for people to imagine living without a car, but in almost any other developed country, its no problem at all to use buses, trains, and cheap taxies (have to say cheap because they aren't cheap here). America will need to learn this magic, but it will be no problem to any other country. You should be glad, Gladstein - credit is the primary means of oppression. We're nuking it.

It's hard to imagine no credit. Perhaps credit would slowly become almost irrelevant because prosperity will enable abundant charity?

What did people do before 1971? Work for a summer and then you can buy your car. Much better than having to repay a debt in something that increases in value over time. There will always be financially illiterate people that take on debt to buy consumer goods, but the incentive will be to buy consumer goods out right

Indentured servitude.
