Interest Defined in Walker's Tenth Political Economy Lecture
General Walker outlines the concept of interest as the share of wealth to the capitalist, landlord rent, and labor wages. He argues interest stems from capital supply and demand, not money quantity, and discusses usury laws, insurance of capital, and wage differences due to labor efficiency and job conditions. The next talk will cover general wealth distribution and employer profits. About 500 complimentary tickets boosted attendance.
