Apparently, neither pure Communism nor pure Capitalist democracies can win.

China is rising in prosperity. It is currently an authoritarian government.

People who oppose banks and credit unions may keep the money in their pay cards, and use the money to pay bills and donate money and buy things.

Yes. That uncomfortable logical conclusion is that one person's ideology, or even a community's ideology, has no correlation with success.

This can be unsettling, because it may imply that there is no free will.

Then again, I have once read a comic in which the guy is told to lift one leg, and he does, and he is told that "That is free will", and then he is told to lift up the other leg but he can't, so he is told "That is predestination."

The conclusion is that people believe that they have free will and believe they can choose to satisfy inner desires, but it is also possible that people really don't have any free will, and other forces are controlling the human (the molecules inside the body, nociceptors, emotions, etc.).
