The word you're looking for is etcetera. And unless you plan to return to community banks where you have to get to know the local banker to get a mortgage, you need this system.
I'm not sure how tying this to capitalism makes sense...lending is a risk, they are betting that you'll remain employed and will continue to pay them - there is a chance you won't and you pay a premium to get money now. Communist countries also have this system, but it is more centrally controlled by the State.
