And these lone islanders, although living in an environment of abundance

And what's bad about interest?  Well, it redistributes wealth(*) from the
poorer ~80% (those who pay more interest than receiving interest) to the
richer ~20% (those who receive more interest) of the population.
In Germany alone, this redistribution amounts to a whopping 1 Billion
Euros PER DAY.

(*) Note that this works not only with money, but with any items.
    (E.g. the medieval tithe was usually paid with food by peasants.)
    I.e. abolishing money wouldn't solve this problem.
