Some people "just walk away from the bills that they 'rung up'" because they CAN'T work enough to pay it off.. many bankruptcies occur because of medical bills.


Read up on who the majority is, that claim bankruptcy and see it's because of medical bills or because they became too sick to work to pay the debt they owed.



I know there are some people and companies that file and start over again and on and on goes the cycle, but this is not the majority. Many people DO use bankruptcy as a last resort...why would you think otherwise? Because of the ones who abuse the system?

Your view is parallel to those who view welfare as a hand out and feel those people should also get multiple jobs. Here again, some people abuse the system, (and they are the ones who create "thinkers" like you, who think the worst of those enduring this), and that they could do things another way.

You sound cold with a very narrow view and quite frankly, judgmental of those for whom this system was set up to PROTECT! That is why bankruptcy was set up to do in the first place...to PROTECT people.
