Usury debate and call to repeal fixed interest laws
The text argues against government limits on interest, calling such laws useless and harmful. It cites England and Holland as models of free money trade, contending that fixed rates distort credit, raise costs for borrowers, and shield sharpers. It questions protections for the poor and urges repeal with emphasis on natural price mechanisms and market supply and demand.
