Justices declined to review the case of seven people who were indicted in 2001 on charges they raised money for the People’s Mujahedeen, also known as the MEK. The State Department first said in 1997 that the group engaged in terrorist activities.

Also Monday, the Court refused to hear a “challenge to New Jersey consumer protection and usury laws filed by the nation’s largest rent-to-own company which operates 43 stores in New Jersey. The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled last year that Rent-A-Center Inc. is subject to a 30 percent interest rate cap per year that applies to other retailers who allow customers to pay for their purchases in installments.”keygen for ultramp3 1.51

I’m for free markets and all, but still I wonder: Is 30% interest not enough?! I mean Jesus Christ! I’m sure Rent-A-Center would say its customers are a poor credit risk, and no doubt they are. That’s why they went to Rent-A-Center and not somewhere else to begin with. But if you can’t make money off of them at even 30% interest, perhaps you should invest in something other than selling luxury items to people with shaky finances. You know?keygen for ultramp3 1.51
