  • Des Moines officials trying to keep payday lenders out

    De Moines public officials are trying to change zoning to stop more payday loan stores from opening. This is not new, but I took issue w/ this statement:

    Meyer says “payday loan stores prey on poor people and set up in poor neighborhoods.”

    This is like saying restaurants prey on families b/c people can cook at home and save money.
