"Payday loans" on the increase

Something tells me that even the Bear Stearns people won't have to get stuck with such limited options. Considering the damage they caused (and will continue to cause thanks to their poor business practices) they ought to be subjected to much worse. Of course they won't because their Republicans friends who helped set up this lousy mess will find new ways to coddle the bastards. Probably they will do it with your tax dollars just before telling you how they cut taxes. Too bad the US as a country will one day be begging for "payday loans." Oh the glorious so-called free market economy. Only someone stupid enough to fall for WMD in Iraq and Mission Accomplished will fall for Republican economics. Not very reassuring, is it?
