If you don't want a central authority taking your money, filtering it through a giant, mostly unaccountable bureaucracy and giving pennies of it on the dollar to poor people, then you're not a Christian?
If that "central authority" is a bank or series of banks which charge interest—usury—then yes, Jesus has made a scourge of cords (http://biblehub.com/john/2-15.htm) with your non-Christian name on it.
