Stephen Zarlenga — "The Moral Necessity for Religion to Eradicate Usury" — Cleveland Society of Friends (Quakers) (4/11/11)


Zarlenga's Talk to the Cleveland Society of Friends (Quakers) 4/11/11
I argued the moral necessity for religion to eradicate usury in the real meaning of that term: whereby the strong take advantage of the weak through unfair monetary mechanisms. Chapter 20 of The Lost Science of Money describes how the private Bank of England was nationalized at the urging of the Archbishop of Canterbury; demonstrating the power of the nation's spiritual hierarchy to obtain economic justice. I tested whether the usury concept could help the Quakers join the fight for monetary reform. Listen to it here.
