Should lenders be allowed to make loans they don't expect borrowers to be able to repay?

Asked by nikipedia (28072points) July 21st, 2008

Do you think society should say, “caveat emptor!” and let consumers borrow their way into holes they can never get out of, or should they be legally protected (prohibited) from taking out loans they can’t reasonably be expected to repay?
