Ah yes, but that headline has no extremist or racist overtones so it'd be no fun for some people to post.

Might be interesting to see this thread in conjunction with the noble prize winner Muhammad Yunus and his Grameen Bank...

You know, there is no natural law that says that every man must pay interest charge. And the dubious conclusion that it's somehow unfair or even a kind of "bend over" if some don't, which seems to be the point of view of one or two people here, is simply blind to their own bending over in a system called capitalism.
It's also quiet a difference between compensation for risk when lending money and doing buissnes for profit by lending money.

Cheers Porphy

Just to clarify my former post, It's because i have little knowledge in banking and watching people wave red flags when I have little understandable information as to how the intiricacies of the banking system works......and I was a bit bored.

(Okay, I admit that I'm too lazy to find out what it's about either right now).
