The FDC has stumbled through life and made this observation over and over again (and of course there are many, many exceptions). And now, there is proof. Arthur Brooks, a professor at Syracuse University wrote the article for today's Wall St. Journal. Mr. Brooks is the author of the forth-coming book, Gross National Happiness.

"Predatory Borrowing"

I wish I'd thought of that term to describe less than honest mortgage borrowers. Economist Tyler Cowen apparently coined it "predatory borrowing". Perfect. The FDC has observed that contrary to CW, this practice is much more prevalent than the always maligned "predatory lending".

Michelle Malkin links the article too, and has more here.
