My understanding is the Islamic banks have a 'workaround'. Instead of charging interest you simply owe the loan amount plus whatever the interest is. If you borrow $100 and the interest is 5% you've borrowed $105 dollars. Except for the more extreme fundamentalists, it's been accepted that way for a long time. No one said "point 5" was gonna be easy... Ps. As I was reading Gadaffi's 'Little Green Book' online a while back I noted his ideas had a lot in common with Anarcho-Syndicalism.
