Think Tank regarding Shemittah

bs"d
 
 
The Shemittah year is coming closer.  Let us set up a think tank of how we could observe Shemittah without Heter Mechira, buying from Arabs, and/or Pruzbul.   This would be a revolution in economics and government as well as the best thing that ever happened to Tikkun Middos. A year of placing our faith in Hashem and in each other.  
 
 
In the Shemittah Sabbatical year all our work is for the sake of Heaven and not for personal gain.  We are commanded to keep from working the Land and the fruits of the Land has Kedushath Shviis.  But letting everyone eat from our field and giving out loans w/o repayment have halachos that truly need to be rediscovered.  Please read  http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2006/03/yahrzeit-ilan-ramon.html
 
Shabbat Shalom!
