A second thought about capitalism and Buddhism. I find that the karmatheory in the vaipulyasuutra's has become very capitalistic. All the elements are there: interest, investment and logaritmic increase if you 'buy'stock in the right mantra or teaching. I wonder what caused this, it must have been the economic system in India at the time.
