Folks lived just fine before these vampires showed up on the scene, and while some folks might struggle for a little while, in the long run, it'll break the cycle of one high-interest loan floating to the next. <BR/><BR/>And I don't have a problem with a casino in Ohio. I have a problem with them using a <B>constitutional amendment</B> to get it. that's just plain wrong.Beaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05124824392519962306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31259652.post-46506837329404968442008-11-04T08:01:00.000-05:002008-11-04T08:01:00.000-05:00I plan to get out about 10 - avoid the lines.Howev...I plan to get out about 10 - avoid the lines.<BR/><BR/>However I have to disagree with you Beanie - it is No on 5 and Yes on 6!<BR/><BR/>While I don't like the payday lenders, I have used them in the past (back during my first marriage), and the government should not be trying to protect us from ourselves. As for the interest - yes, annualize it is huge, but then no business could afford to make loans high risk loans for very short terms at 28% (How about you lend me $500 for a month for only $12 interest - and try to make a business of that!)<BR/><BR/>And the casinos - there are a lot of scare tactics going on with this one - I see more jobs in Ohio. If it is voted down then those who want to gamble will continue to take their money out of state.Mike Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09284283089081032577noreply@blogger.com
