I've said much on mal v bene credit, but here is another example of avoiding the mal-credit. Here a false dilemma is presented, without mal-credit your small business is disadvantaged.
Yes, small businesses thrive on credit, but bene-credit, in essence vendor financing at zero interest.
There is a difference between money and credit, and banks have abandoned lending the former for the latter. An economy needs both money and credit, but mal-credit is disastrous. Ugandans don't need mal-credit, they need patterns and practices in law that support bene-credit and a regime that treats interest like gambling debts, unenforceable in law.

They were ejected by Idi Amin, but if the Ugandans could embrace vendor financing bene-credit instead of paying usury to bankers, their economy would thrive better faster. But that is not the modern way, I guess.
