35. Money lenders should take the risk as much as the farmer.
The farmers put their labor into it. If the crop failed because of bad seed, the money lender should share in the burden. Money lenders should have no right to go after the farmers who in good faith did all they could to make it a success. There is a crime here of fraud - the one who sold the seed. It is they who are now in debt to both the farmer and the money lender.

Or is my sense of justice skewed? Either by intent or negligence, there are some people with blood money in their bank accounts. What they have sown is their own corruption.
