POPS Microlending -- An Alternative to Payday Loans?

by kjsecond 4-2-2008

There's an interesting article in today's New York Times about "microlending" in the US. Microlending is common in third world countries, and involves small, short term loans provided as a stimulus to the economy. Recipients are typically small businesses or merchants. The New York Times article discusses microlending in the US as a possible alternative to payday loans . Sounds interesting.... but most payday borrowers are not using the money for an income-generating activity.
