...it's really a stupid excuse.
There are a quarter billion people in this country that understand how borrowing money works.
They all know banks don't ask people to borrow money.
They may ask us to borrow from them rather than they're competitors, but they're not begging people to borrow money, overall.
Everyone knows that! Yet, that's the excuse used.

They insisted on giving me a loan to buy my Bentley, and when I didn't pay that back they insisted on giving me another loan. Now they're insisting I take another loan out to cover some debts and have a few hundred million left to acquire some golf resorts. Life is sweet! People who can't make it in this country are just stupid or lazy!
