Good News, Bad News

The bad news is that the Iranian prez is bullying his rivals. The good news is that he finally came out against Hitler:

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accused his election rivals on Wednesday of adopting smear tactics used by Germany's dictator Adolf Hitler and said they could face jail for insulting him.

Rob,

I don't think he came out against Hitler per se, but against anyone who opposes him. Remember that Hitler and that midget Ahmadinejad fell from the same tree.

Payday loans ruin lives exactly the same way credit card debt does. People sign paperwork with the terms of the agreement. If you don't like the agreement then don't sign it. The payday loan debates rage on. The payday loan debates are nationwide, with several states trying to pass anti-payday loan legislation, and there's even a Federal bill to the same end. The debate whether to keep the payday loan lenders or not won't subside, but some people don't know the good that cash advance lenders do. For instance, areas in which lenders haven't been driven out Frankenstein style, have lower rates of foreclosure, lower incidents of bankruptcy, and fewer fees assessed for credit card late fees and overdraft fees. Payday Loans are like an installment loan to the economy. The detractors don't mention how debt relief efforts will be hindered in the payday loan debates.
