laws that legalize their usury,

Nice word, usury. It has a wonderfully slithering sound of sleazy illegality.

But it has no application to what we're talking about here.

As a matter of fact, it does if you know the territory that this thread
has blundered into.....

I was essentially saying "a pox on both their houses", or more
precisely, "a pox on their house".

No significant difference amongst them all. They simply change sides,
and their viewpoints, depending on whether they're "in power" or "not".

Pay no attention to the men behind the curtain.
