in 2005 republicans made bankruptcy laws much tighter. Despite it, I still successfully filed chapter 7 protection last year and wiped out 0000 insecure debt. The reason for cracking down on bankruptcy filers in 2005 by repubs were as follows — "people should be financially responsible". As if the government is very financially responsible? How can government tell people to be financially responsible when they themselves are reckless spenders like bailout, iraq war spending, etc etc? That’s being so hypocrite. Also republicans now say, "its not government’s job to tell people how to live". Again they defy their own advice. And most of all, its not person’s fault he goes into bankruptcy. The recession caused millions to become bankrupt, when they lost jobs. And in such situation Bush/Cheney led government tried to choke and hurt these people by making it harder for them to file chapter 7? Then why didn’t they let corporations file chapter 11 instead of being bailed out? Hypocrite republicans. Also shows republicans are only for the rich and not poor. This proves it.
its not copy/paste. its my own thoughts 100%.
comrade: Why do corporations have to be bailed out then? if they can be bailed out, I should be allowed bankruptcy too
both joes: FAIL
no wonder republicans lost house, senate in 2007 and presidency in 2008.
conservative anger: how are you going to pay when you have no money? with a magic wand?
showing the anti-bankruptcy model hurt GOP itself. That was political suicide. From thereon, Bush ratings dropped dramatically and 1 year later they were booted from house and senate
Notice right now Palin and various GOP leaders avoid debate on bankruptcy laws and don’t ever talk of cracking down on bankruptcy. Notice they changed their position now.
Joe: you say, " No Republican forced millions of people to buy homes, cars, and other things outside of their means leading them to the point where they need to file bankruptcy." What about bankruptcy due to job loss or medical emergency? are you trying to say all bankruptcies are due to negligence? you are cruel and heartless, like typical conservative
comrade joe: you can eliminate bankruptcy law but that doesn’t mean creditors will be paid. If there is no money, there is no payment. its that simple

paycheck until he/she pays back the taxpayers if they have to go the hospital? must pay us back with no bankruptcy protection? maybe the gop would like this idea? I think it might not be a bad alternative

Seeing as to how Obamacare is heavily debated and let’s be honest the GOP haven’t put a viable alternative so what are your thoughts on some reform

What should be the main goal of health reform in the US, should it Decrease the cost of health care, Improve the quality of health care, Improve the access to health care or make most Americans receive at least basic free public care. What would it be like for the US if an Australian system like the Medicare service is implemented where all taxpayers pay a 1.5% income tax levy (with exceptions for low-income earners), an additional levy of 1% is imposed on high-income earners without private health insurance. There is also a private health system where people pay for health insurance to go to a private hospital if they wish for quicker service. Bankruptcies from lack of funds to pay for medical bills is the largest reason for personal bankruptcies in the US accounting for over 60 % of all bankruptcies, while in Australia it is almost negligible.
