I understand that people have the right to choose whether or not they go and get the loan, but the thought of someone being desperate enough to need the money, and being taken advantage of that bad, just doesn't seem right. And the rate I quoted is actually listed at https://www.checkngo.com/stateDisclosures/South%20Carolina/schedule1.jpg specifically for South Carolina. If Belinda has to get rid of them by passing a crazy law about the size of the building they are in, then so be it.

Ironically enough, most of these causes championed by our media and public officials is done under the guise of helping poor, vulnerable consumers. Wearing the cloak of consumer advocacy gets things done and earns votes, but it almost always ends up hurting the very consumers it intends to help.

It must be true!! Merry Christmas, Will,

What a bunch of liberal, big brother, nanny state crap. This is of course all about Steve Benjamins mayoral run. Nothing but a scam.
