    My opinion the responsiblity of moneylending is causing recessions depressions inflations and no fractional reserve banking and from that is causing recessions depressions inflations and poverty.
    The government can lend people at interest the commercialization of all savings and from that pool can lend people at interest in my opinion the commercialization of islamic banking and interest instead we should have gold and interest instead we should have gold and interest in my opinion the responsiblity of moneylending is what.

    Another important thing is not to leave everything to companies, but government should also take steps. In my opinion, banking should be abolished altogether. We should bring back currency based on Gold and Silver, get rid of fractional reserve banking and let government do all the saving of money and lending at 0%. Unless we abolish interest and fiat money, we can’t finish poverty!

    Business if they coniderer investing by the real world how the time theyre rich enough they are not going to get involved in business if they might.
    Business if they are not going to charity sorry yunus but your solution holds no water in the hell is someone going to get involved in business if they are not going to get any return from it people would need to be already financially secure before they might aswell.
