Biased reporting of the day

The legislative climate in other states is shifting away from payday loans. But not South Carolina.

You won’t see payday lending signs in North Carolina – not since the state banned the practice after a legal fight by the Attorney General Roy Cooper. Cooper fought the lenders for years and later touted his fight in a TV add saying, “We ran off the payday lenders.”

Yes, and consumers in North Carolina are worse off according to a staff study of the New York Federal Reserve.  Except for the ones that cross the border in Virginia or South Carolina to get payday loans.
