bankruptcy and katrina
Edited on Thu Sep-08-05 07:22 AM by iamthebandfanman
i heard cnn bring up a good question this morning...

what will people effected by Katrina do when the new bankruptcy laws go into effect in october?
its really going to hurt alot of people who will be trying to seek it.
yet another blunder from the bush crime family coming back to yet again punch people in the face.

what do you all think?

EDIT:
please?

1. The Repugs fought ...
to specifically include NOT covering victims of floods, in the "credit card" bill.
In other words making it much more difficult to seek relief through bankruptcy.

2. The very poor will still qualify under old rules, but
it will really hurt the middle-upper middle class people who exceed the state average income/year...interestingly, these are more likely to be the Republican voters.
