This is like the min wage argument. Yeah, a $50 min wage would probably kill a lot of jobs - but that doesn't mean an $8 min wage is bad no matter how much dumbasses who took Econ 101 like to pontificate that it is. In fact, the research seems to suggest that a $15 min wage is good. |

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: self-absorbed brindle business firm 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. |
