If Able were a big bully and could simply steal half of his 
neighbors’ catch every day, then it would be true that his 
relative wealth would be derived from the relative poverty of 
those he oppresses. But these actions, which would involve 
forcing others to do something against their own interests, 
would not increase the island’s overall productive capacity. 
He would simply take what others have produced, and the 
island’s production would remain the same. More likely, 
overall capacity would fall. The oppressed would cut back 
on their work when they realized the fruits of their labor 
would be stolen. 
Large-scale examples of such coercion dominate history. 
Slavery, serfdom, and peasantry all come to mind. And 
while workers do respond to force when their self-interest is 
denied, they respond far better if they are the benefi ciaries 
of their labor. 
Unfortunately, examples of large-scale economic freedom 
are rare in global history. But when self-interest is allowed to 
fl ourish, productive capacity expands quickly.  
The use of credit is the perfect example of how economic 
freedom works to everyone’s benefi t. As long as lenders and 
borrowers are free to strike their own terms, the collective re-
sults will be a success. However, as we will see later on, the 
market for loans can be distorted by outside forces. When it 
is, disaster usually ensues.
