Payday Pundit

According to a new poll by Center for Consumer Freedom, only 10% of Ohioans say they would make loans at the 36% or 28% rate cap proposed by Ohio legislators.      From the news release:

When asked how much they would charge a complete stranger who wanted to borrow $100 for two weeks, just nine percent of respondents said $1.50 or less. Over 80% of respondents would still be unwilling to make the loan at $15 or less, the common rate for a payday loan of that size in Ohio.
