I am not an economist but as far as I know, Marx already distinguished "industrial capitalism" from "finance capitalism". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finance_capitalism
#Veblen seems to have developed this distrinction further.
Gottfried Feder, the original Nazi party's chief economist, also liked to distinguish between "schaffendes Kapital" and "raffendes Kapital", creating a basis for #Strasserism and #Hitlerism.

I wonder how we can use this distinction now without falling into the abyss that is antisemitism.
