You know, I'm pretty much convinced there is an entire business model built around taking advantage of minorities/poor people who are bad with money. I think some businesses encourage it and capitalize on it.
I spent a year, two years living in the middle of a city in the black area of town and some of the shit was just crazy. There were tons of pay day loans and rent a centers. Every gas station was a run down shit hole that kept a fine stalk of malt liquors. And stores were designed to rip people off. Like for example, this one chain electronics store had really old stock. They refused to mark anything down too. AND to make matters worse, they loved to sell this shit to churches in the area, forcing them to take out loans to buy some over priced PA that was 7 years old. And god help them if they payed to have the shit installed. And the whole time, swearing up and down they were helping the church out. They'd really talk the shit up.
Had you told me about this shit when I lived in Whitey Mcwhitetown, I'd told you that you are full of shit. But it is real. There are poor communities that have a culture that is about as sensible as a dog chewing its own ass and eating its own waste.
