Usury used to be punishable by death...

It all started in 1179.

The Magna Carta was the first declaration in self governance to have a section about Usury.

Educate a fellow pede, what is usury? I'm assuming it's something to do with fucking around with the value of money or currency?

No, it's loaning out money and asking back much more than you gave. In the Middle Ages it simply meant greedy private moneylenders. Now our global economy is based on it.

It's basically charging interest on a loan. You aren't supposed to ask for more money back from someone than they borrowed from you.

It's lending at exorbitent rates. Particularly those against the law.

It's a term that really shouldn't exist in law and shouldn't exist in capitalism.

We only have usury because our financial institutions are controlled. If we had a free market you could give any loan you wanted. The reality is that people shouldn't take loans they cannot pay nor should a lender loan to those who cannot pay or safely provide collateral.

If we enter an agreement where you agreed to pay me 1000000% APR, then who is the retard? Why are you even borrowing money in the first place (much bigger question in the grand scheme)?

The whole concept surrounding lending is absurd. But people who take a loan and then don't like it after would say it's usury...

Lending upon interest in the simplest of terms. Eventually creating debt.

Jackson would be beyond pissed to see what he fought so hard to get rid of from the US not only back, but with more power and control than it had before.

And they used a phony "emergency" to get it back, with the bullshit bank runs that we all learn about in school.

...and that 12 USC 95a has never been released, nor has Proclamation 2040 ever been terminated. March 9, 2021 will be the 88 year anniversary.

The “cultural and civil war” is static white noise obscuring the picture.

The Left is being used by Bankers and Oligarchs to disseminate violence on their countrymen to retain power.

Their countrymen are being baited into the violence and have forgotten the enemy is the Bankers and Oligarchs.

“The Left and Right” are one in the same.

History has been perverted.

Yes, honestly I was noticing today I am not even mad at Antifa anymore. I mean fuck them, but I don't care about them at all compared to the elites.

They are the useful idiots.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The enemy is the Oligarchs and Bankers.

They give you the beginnings to both the question and answer.

Flaunting it as a sort of humiliation ritual.

The people in power disguise themselves as protected and chosen by God. They are all satanists.
