If you are learning econ from Alex Jones and Ron Paul then good luck. You got the source wrong. BTW, I think you are confused, literally, on the one side you say that you are still learning about capitalism, but on the other hand you say that Muslims do not know it. To understand that Muslim do not know it, you need to know it first, right? Go to http://www.islamic-finance.com/indexnew.htm and try to get a different prespective from the resources and editorials posted on that site. I know its about financing but there are a lot of econ stuff there as well.
