Round three

June 25, 2009 | industry | Comments (0)

I said the Meyers/Kelvan fight would go six rounds.  We’ll see, but here’s round three:

I congratulate Josh Kalven of Progress Illinois on replying to my last article. He did not run away, as most opponents do. Yet I remain perplexed as to how he dodges the specific issues raised in my article, and instead falls back on the old ad-hominem argument instead.

Josh, please return to address the issues I raised directly. I’ll reiterate them here:

1) Options for short-term credit are limited. You want to ban payday loans. What alternatives do you propose for those unable to use the other options?
2) If you have none, do you realize you are forcing them to more expensive options?
3) I posted a link discrediting the usury claim you made. Your reply?
4) Are you a government paternalist, who believes that people’s choices should be stripped away from them?
