It would be useful to have you outline some of the laws Moses outlined for the welfare of the poor.
No probs.
Some are copied below.
Imagine how these could be inserted into commerce, industry, retail etc.
Example: In the UK most retailers are worried about staff scams, discarded stock scams, blah blah, and because of this everything that is thrown away is smashed up or spoiled completely so that it cannot be utilised in any way. That includes food, toys, everything! Under Mosaic law the retail trade would be banned from doing that.
And so, if you expand what you read below into the whole world, it's just fantastic.
And don't forget, I'm not Jewish.
