<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 5124435, member: 26302"]This seems like a definite "progressive" trend, blame the people lending money. Did these lenders put a gun to the President of Zambia's head and told him to take their money? All across the world, the same excuse is being used, "aggressive lenders got them in trouble", etc. How is the WORLD is a lender to BLAME for when a borrower agrees to borrow the money and then doesn't? I can see loan sharking, with weekly vig being overly burdensome, but national debt with interest usually below 10%, and its the LENDER's fault? Same is being said of US credit card loans, or car loans, etc. To progressives, its the banks fault for lending the money. That is like blaming the butcher for you being fat. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
