      You know what would be really funny? Starting a payday loan business that isn’t as nightmarishly exploitative just to upset the industry.

        The sad thing is that the rates would still be pretty high just to cover the risk. People dont get a payday loan because everything is going fine for them financially.

      I’ve heard the argument that if those were illegal, loan sharks would just take their place. And they tend to be worse.

          They’re licensed at the county level.

        And then if those were illegal, actual sharks would take their place. And they are way worse.
