April 28, 2009 | industry, research | Comments (1)Consumers want everything to be cheaper. From a Center for Consumer Freedom survey:
Earlier this month a lobbying group called the Center for Responsible Lending (CRL) released a survey purporting to show that most Americans support capping interest rates on short-term loans. But a recent survey conducted by CCF shows that many Americans support a price cap on nearly everything: 39% support the government limiting the price of a cup of coffee as well as new televisions!
CCF’s survey also showed that 57% of Americans support Congressional action to cap the cost of cell phones, 56% support capping interest on short-term loans, and 55% supported capping the price of automobiles.
The Payday Pundit just bought a new laptop for about $500 so some things are actually coming down in price. My last laptop cost about $900.
