Martin Eakes and coupled with its partner organization the Self Help credit union headed The Center for Responsible Lending, is a bit of a misnomer. This center promotes mortgage loans to be made by people whom turns out, irresponsible to lend to. They’ve made their propaganda machine on the cash advance industry, recently restricted in Ohio by the Small Loan Act, and when cash advance lenders there found legal means to stay in business, they started screaming about it in a most child-like fashion. It’s really hard to believe they really are a Center for Responsible Lending.
