The Historical Role of Jews in Usury and Capitalism

This chapter explores the historical involvement of Jews in usury and capitalism, discussing how they were invited by rulers to help make money and introduce usury to areas where it was considered a sin. It highlights examples from history, such as the settlement in Russia and the development of mercantilism in England, and argues that Jews have frequently been involved whenever there has been a financial or political shift. The chapter expresses concern about the lack of a limiting mechanism for usury tactics, financial control, and propaganda, citing historical expulsions as evidence.
