I am posting the ninth chapter of The Machinery of Freedom, “Exploitation and Interest”. Here, David Friedman briefly explains what is wrong with the Marxist teaching about the exploitation of workers’ labor by capitalists, why charging interest is legitimate, and why an inheritance should go to the heir rather than being distributed equally to everyone.

Only one chapter remains until the end of the first part; its translation has already been sent and only needs to be edited. Then, the first part will be posted as a single file for download, and we will move forward. The process is moving briskly; send your money to the wallet 1AFkD2bazCs5YZBBrSD7HsRMWLmRbg6QBo so that it continues cheerfully as well.

If anyone has a publishing house in mind to release a small print run of The Machinery of Freedom on paper, you can start making inquiries in advance to discuss the details, so that upon completion of the translation, no time is wasted on negotiations about publication.
