Well, the way I define "aid" is that it is help, money, etc, etc, given to someone who cannot be of service to us in the near future. IOW, me giving money to United Way or the Susan G Kommen Foundation is basically aid. If I am getting something back in return, it is no longer aid. It is a sale. You owe me money and I wipe off the interest, it is aid. You owe me money and I wipe off the interest and maybe some principal and you give me your wife for a night (Indecent proposal, sorta) is not aid.
If you want to cut off what I define as aid, go for it. If you want to cut off the barter, trade or whatever you want to call the exchange, you need to be really careful about that.
