And you shall hallow the fiftieth year and you shall proclaim liberty throughout the land it all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee to you.
International debt condemns hundreds of millions of people to live in poverty.

Debt creates political, social and economic instability throughout the world. Now the Year of Jubilee is here.
