        Oh good, I was worried that people living paycheck to paycheck who encounter sudden financial difficulties with few options to handle their problems weren't being exploited hard enough lately. Trumpland is on the case!

        It's an unsavory industry (IMO), but payday lenders are a critical resource for some segments of the population. Damaging to many rural and urban Americans to curb payday loans and not provide an alternative.

        This is about opening doors for predation not providing service. WSJ loves it, born on 3rd bonanza.

        As for providing that 'bridge the gap' service to desperate people, does this not make it worse?

        Don't know if it makes it worse, but it certainly doesn't help. My concern is with cutting off an avenue (although predatory) that "helps" people make it from day-to-day but not providing an alternative. I need to find more on what's proposed other than this WSJ blurb.

        I’m sure the payday loan industry holding events at Trump property is has nothing at all to do with his administrations positions & actions in this matter... #Paytoplay #TrumpCrimeFamily #EmolumentsClause

        Trump shows how to deal with a black man in office, starting with a birther conspiracy...
