I'm not a religious man, but one quote from a religious leader has always stuck out to me. "Interest is a terrific servant and a terrible master."
The polis, bazaar, and pulpit have always been at odds as a triumvirate. My bet is on the bazaar. Even when people are put in jail economics is manifest, using cigarettes or other trinkets as currency for favors and meager supplies. The "market" the author rails against is a strawman.
