Answer #7:

I don't know any Americans who favor usury, except of course the usurers.

Answer #8:

Because it makes a lot of people money. Now metal backed currency is dead, I don't know why people always bring it up. We had recessions and financial issues even when currency was backed by gold or silver.

Answer #9:

Goddamn but you are a (insert insult here). "Interests are the biggest financial crime ever." Goddamn! Allow me to educate you, although I suspect it will be a monumental waste of time, even less engaging than watching my grass grow, but here goes:

"Interests" as you say, is the price to borrow someone else's capital. One might need a loan to purchase a machine for one's business. After figuring opportunity costs of laying out one's own capital and deciding it best to use someone else's money for a time, one goes to the bank and takes out a loan for said machine. I could go into the types of "interests" with you, but forget it.

Why would a bank loan money for free? They would lose capital that could otherwise be invested (opportunity cost again) and for what? So that some Karl Marx disciple like yourself can purchase a machine to make his business more profitable, but the bank loses money? Goddamn!

I don't blame you though. I blame our sorry government schools. But still, I went to the same government schools and I am not a (insert insult here) like you. Goddamn! If you don't like "interests" then use your own capital to purchase goods. It's called "choice."
