USURYc

This is mere a website.

Connecting Wikipedia articles that describe issues and/or problems with an ancient insight found in different cultures. Forced upon greed. Aka usury.

A story about us.

The first 101 posts discuss various negative effects that can be caused by usury, including poverty, slavery, environmental destruction, societal dysfunction, and personal and societal moral decay. The posts also touch on themes of materialism, societal division, and the manipulation of individuals and groups by those in power. They suggest that usury creates a number of problems and that it is a key component in the societal and environmental issues we face today.

The posts presented are invitations for us. Each post ends with a set of hashtags to find the online setting for that particular appeal.

Here are the first 101 posts.
