Housing prices and inequality
#3
Now for a commodity often terribly overpriced -- cars if one is among the working poor. This is ugly.

29% interest... quick repossession but one still owes the debt even if the car is repossessed and sold to another victim... the typical loan goes into default in seven months.... people going bankrupt because of loan-shark car loans...

Loan-sharking is a growth industry in America. Something about America is truly sick.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
