Yeah, my opinion doesn't easily fit into either side of this debate. I am perfectly fine with lenders charging whatever interest rate they prefer. However, I am strongly in favor of regulating the terms of consumer loans to avoid confusion, surprise and other nefarious practices. In other words, I am fine with the kikes extracting as much flesh as the goy are willing to serve to them, just as long as the goy are perfectly aware how much flesh they will be required to give up. |

Date: May 10th, 2019 7:09 PM Author: Peach persian doctorate Yeah I mean I don't think that AOC is saying a construction lender shouln't be allowed to charge 20% interest on a deal where sophisticated principals are putting up 5% of real equity.
She's talking about a mom who was broke and put the school lunches on her credit card that she couldn't pay off. I think the OP's argument is that she is in a better spot because without charging her 25% interest they would never have extended her the money, but this is untrue because my guess is that practically Visa still would have done it and also its not a loan to get her out of a bad spot (unlike the developer above she's not going to exit the deal and make a ton of money), its a loan to put her in an even worse spot next month. |

First, nothing gets done about payday lenders and sub prime installment loans. All a cap would do is drive the banks to be more picky at the bottom end of the credit spectrum and force people who would otherwise pay 30% interest now pay 50% - 2,000% |

Even if you attack all sub prime lending, you will just get loan sharks popping up. They already exist in poor areas and would just multiple.
So basically you are going to massively interfere in the market with the result being that things will end up worse. |
