with this BK reform bill. I filed for BK Chapter 7 two years ago and am still grateful for it, it saved my home and my car. To make a looong story short, I fell into hard times. Today I am doing very well after the chapter 7 discharge was granted and I got the fresh start. I believe that the U.S. Trustee is one that checks everything, he's one to approve or refuses to grant, his own decision is based on what he sees, proof of stuff, etc.. Leave it to U.S. Trustees and Judges. It's not for Credit Companies/Predatory Lenders to benefit at poor/middle Americans' expenses. They don't lose money anyway! It's not all about charging junks on your credit cards. BK cases aren't always about CREDIT CARDS. Anyway, I want people who needs it to have same opportunity that was given to me. I can picture U.S. streets being filled with the homeless, beggars, overcrowded debtors' prisons..if Bush/GOP get their way with this BK reform, cutting funds, destroy SS....Sad! Perhaps this reform would help to prevent the rich from profitting from BK, but it won't! It's not targeted at the rich, but right at the unfortunate, poor, elderly, sick people with no way out. Don't let this bill pass.
