Many thanks to those of you who have sent me e-mail to point out that my signature was incorrect (utter vs. other). My only excuse is that it has been a long week. And it's only Monday. Apparently, having a signature is futile as well. Thanks again, Darren Bush Dept. of Economics Univer

[PEN-L:4801] credit & capital

[PEN-L:4800] Re: Marx, Usury, Exploitation

I found Jim Devine's discussion very interesting. I wonder if he has seen the analysis of the lending monopoly in the post-Reconstruction crop-lien system (which in many cases reduced former slaves and white tenants and share-croppers alike to debt peonage) in Ransom and Sutch's _One Kind of Free
