A different angle. But probably for the same reason. You kinda wonder why these poor communities don't have community-owned businesses. Crowdfunded works so well, why not in ghettos? It doesn't help when most people don't have any spending money to contribute because they are drained dry by the banks...

That's what credit unions are. You don't have many in the ghetto, because most aren't really communities, which is why they are what they are.
