I fill their form out only to then realize 9 times out of 10 that they are in fact a service that will search for a lender on my behalf, fair enough, that can be helpful but it's the way they give the initial impression that they themselves are the lender when in fact they're not that I find dubious and they seem to be way outnumbering the amount of actual lenders advertising on line.

Ha:D, well, on a serious point regarding this it could be argued that it's a human right to have the basics and if a loan is the only way someone can get the basics then yes, it's a human right alright, this of course actually exposes the holes that are in the supposed "safety nets" that are meant to be in place for people to fall back on.

We've been told by our Primeminister David Cameron over here in the UK that being in work will always be more rewarding than being on the dole but as a worker I can tell you that the reality is a little different from all that baloney.

If you think about it, the UK government is already having to cut the welfare budget due to deficit problems, same in many other countries meaning that many will suffer so they will have no choice but to turn to loan sharks to get the assistance that they should be getting from said government, this is why governments will probably not want to do anything that will upset private lending businesses, in fact, if anything the government needs them to stop what would be social anarchy.

I can see this industry booming even more than ever in the next few years as the cuts really begin to bite, there was a time years ago when I swore I would never use loan sharks and thought anyone who did was daft but that was when I was much better off, now, it's survival time!
