19. State of Interest Rates and Debt
GOD:
How could the church and the elected “government of
the people, by the people, for the people,” allow such outrageous
interest rates charged on the poor villagers’ debt – a debt that has
been forced upon them, again due to slavery wages and income inequality?
Man lives on hope and love! Hope and love for a better tomorrow, a
better year, a better harvest, a better job, a better life, as without
it, he has no reason to live. It is that hope and the immediate need for
food and shelter, especially with hungry mouths to feed, that he has
been exploited with so-called “easy credit” again, fueled by greed and
by the wrong and shortsighted government economic policies, perhaps,
drafted and pushed through their legislators by the same 1% and/or just
to get elected or reelected. A corrupt system that feeds on itself until
it implodes morally, financially, and sadly, literally with the nuclear
war!
How can the credit card companies, the pawn shops, and the short term
lenders justify charging 35% or in some cases upward of 300% or more
interest when the interest rate they pay on the villagers’ meager
savings is less than 1% even if that? The same bank that charges the
villagers 35% interest is borrowing money from their Federal Reserve –
the villagers – at 0% interest. How can that be a sound financial
foundation for longevity of the village, as it is now evident by their
financial crises that had gripped the world and pushing it over the
cliff?
Now the swindlers under not so watchful eyes of so called the
government of the people, by the people, for the
people, were able to settle their case for overcharging the
merchants – in turn the villagers – extra fees, but with a bonus,
allowing the merchants to add a surcharge for using their credit card,
which means another tax on the 99% and the poorest as the 1% have all
the cash and are most likely exempt from the surcharge.
“A village cannot be a hive of thieves and swindlers.”
JESUS:
That is why I went to the temple(1)
and threw out the money changers to
make exactly the same point. As it is evil to milk the poor for every
meager earning they have. That is why it’s necessary for me to go back
and bring the church and its hierarchy in line with Your wishes, and in
turn save the village and humanity before it is too late.
