The fact that this is being considered..., speaks volumes about lawmakers.
I guess if you can run a tab at the bar..., and after all, payday loans are available too. Sounds like a profitable idea; to keep extending easy credit to marks & alkies, so that they spend all their money ahead of payday.
Maybe they'll start selling lottery tickets on credit next.
