Why Christians in government matters

My friend Cold Fusion Guy links to a loan offer you don't want to take--apparently, the tribe is going into businesses usually associated wtih the Mob, specifically loan sharking.

Now far be it from me to deny the Lakota an opportunity to make a living, but I have to wonder if--just like other tribes which run casinos--this business is going to cause more trouble than it is worth.  Specifically, what tribal leaders are telling their young people is that prosperity depends on taking advantage of desperate people.

That sounds like a recipe for creating criminals, or at least Democrats, and if you wanted to create a situation where no one would dare to do business in your area, you could hardly do better.

Point of interest; I went to college with a Lakota gentleman from Eagle Butte.  Good guy, but I'm not quite sure we understood each other, though we certainly tried.
