Trump Sides With Payday Lenders Preying On Poor In Red States

I have no need to be perfect......I have been made righteous not by my actions but by the saving grace of Jesus Christ.........that's what he was referring to five verses later when he said " “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”.......thanks, though......

But God isn't speaking to you there. That is the output of chemical reactions in the brains of men thousands of years ago having delusions about astral projection and a cloud dad.
Not surprised you share in their dumb.

Just give to the poor and STFU about it. The fact that you believe charity will provide you with return consideration from something that doesn't exist doesn't concern us. Whatever makes you do it, cool.
 
The average loan term is about two weeks. Loans typically cost 400% annual interest (APR) or more. The finance charge ranges from $15 to $30 to borrow $100. For two-week loans, these finance charges result in interest rates from 390 to 780% APR.

Most responsible people would not put themselves at financial ruin by having to use those loans.

I always wondered how they secure the loans.

Here's how it works:

"Payday loans are short-term cash loans based on the borrower's personal check held for future deposit or on electronic access to the borrower's bank account. Borrowers write a personal check for the amount borrowed plus the finance charge and receive cash. In some cases, borrowers sign over electronic access to their bank accounts to receive and repay payday loans.

Lenders hold the checks until the borrower’s next payday when loans and the finance charge must be paid in one lump sum. To pay a loan, borrowers can redeem the check by paying the loan with cash, allow the check to be deposited at the bank, or just pay the finance charge to roll the loan over for another pay period. Some payday lenders also offer longer-term payday instalment loans and request authorization to electronically withdraw multiple payments from the borrower’s bank account, typically due on each pay date. Payday loans range in size from $100 to $1,000, depending on state legal maximums. The average loan term is about two weeks. Loans typically cost 400% annual interest (APR) or more. The finance charge ranges from $15 to $30 to borrow $100. For two-week loans, these finance charges result in interest rates from 390 to 780% APR. Shorter term loans have even higher APRs. Rates are higher in states that do not cap the maximum cost."

me, you, and everyone else......

???......just the opposite.......I already have the consideration as a free gift from Jesus Christ.......charity (of which I have never spoken despite your silly comment) is not something given to seek return, but the return given in thanks for what's been received.......you atheists are really clueless about religion for people who complain about it so much.......

That is some kind of amazing desperation that results in those contracts. I would not call holding a check from a person in this predicament "security" Another rancid detail are the NSF fees and treble damages or liquidated damage provisions they assuredly write into the K.. These contracts are so adhesive your need a gallon of "goof off" solvent to remove it from your hands.
 
Ordinary loans have the lowest interest rates for the borrowers with the highest credit.

The more risk to the loaning institution, the higher the interest rate charged.

Now, I can understand when somebody has maxed out their credit cards (another systematic rip-off scheme,) that banks will be reluctant to loan to them.

So ordinary rates charged to good credit loan customers (6% up to 12%) are not offered to those with poor credit.

It would be understandable for those rates to be higher for poor credit customers. Perhaps double, up to 24%, for short term loans. That would sound reasonable. After all, these payday loaners are getting a post-dated check. If that check bounces, the borrower faces the law for writing bad checks, a strong incentive to make good on it.

And they generally do make good on it.

And THAT is why there are so many payday loan joints around.

Because they are not charging 24% interest.

They could do a good profitable business at 24%, but Noooooooo! They are not satisfied with THAT.

They are greedy. They squeeze their victims for whatever they can get out of them.

It is a case of the rich working over the poor.

It's reprehensible.

No wonder Trump supports it.
 
One wonders how many of those loans are made by drug addicts who made some horrible decisions.

If you max out your credit cards, you made some poor decisions and will be forced to suffer the consequences of those poor decisions, Snowflake.

The poor will always be with you, because there will always be those who make truly horrible life decisions, Snowflake.
 
Donald Trump Is Targeting an Agency That Has Recovered $11.8 Billion for Consumers

Within days of being sworn in, President Donald Trump has already pledged to cut business regulations by 75%. One way he is likely to fulfill that promise, at least in part, is by defanging a legacy of the 2008 financial crisis: the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

That could mean the functional end to the consumer watchdog, which has been responsible for returning roughly $11.8 billion to some 29 million consumers since its inception in 2011, according to data from the bureau. That’s an average of $407 returned to each affected consumer, affecting roughly 9% of the U.S. population (assuming no single consumer was a victim in more than one case).

https://fortune.com/2017/01/27/dona...protection-financial-bureau-elizabeth-warren/

And that folks, is the quintessential example of what a POS scum of the earth Trump is to his very core.
