Yeah, um, this idea has been around for a couple centuries.
It's called a "Credit Union."
Except we don't **** people on their interest rate like that.

See, that's the thing: the Credit Union is owned by the depositors, so it's the depositors that are actually taking the risk. It's just distributed. :D
And yeah, we have more overhead, but somehow we manage to make loans at less than 21%. :)
