tbh i'm not entirely sure how much people who dislike them think it's about them not being clear about their fee structure and how much it's just about high interest rates and other fees even if they'd still be pretty damn high just to cover credit risk even if you didn't care about making money beyond breaking even

*leans into mic*

In a profitability analysis by Fordham Journal of Corporate & Financial Law, it was determined that the average profit margin from seven publicly traded payday lending companies (including pawn shops) in the U.S. was 7.63%, and for pure payday lenders it was 3.57%. These averages are less than those of other traditional lending institutions such as credit unions and banks. Comparatively the profit margin of Starbucks for the measured time period was just over 9%, and comparison lenders had an average profit margin of 13.04%. These comparison lenders were mainstream companies: Capital One, GE Capital, HSBC, Money Tree, and American Express Credit.

Payday lenders aren’t charging outrageous interest rates so they can get fat off the profits. They’re charging outrageous interest rates because loaning money to poor people who often fail to pay back their loans is a hard business to break even on.

Poor people would sell their babies if it was legal. They make bad decisions, hence their poorness. We must protect them from their own stupidity.

relatedly, Professors of social science think check-cashing shops are evil because they charge the poor higher rates, so they should be regulated away so that poor people don’t foolishly shoot themselves in the foot by going to them. But on closer inspection, they offer a better deal for the poor than banks do, for complicated reasons that aren’t visible just by comparing the raw numbers.

cq. i'm all for allowing people to make mistakes, but people living in poverty impose a ton of collateral costs on our entitlement society. at some point, the benefit of allowing people to contract freely is outweighed by agreements that make it virtually certain that someone will remain in poverty and continue to leech off of taxpayers/commit crimes their entire lives.

I only oppose these to the extent the lenders mislead the recipients about loan terms. There is a fair amount of lying that goes on at the payday loan level despite regs.

I don't oppose the high interest rates or the existence of payday loans though. The only access to credit for these sort of people will come at a high rate bc of the risk.
