"Yeah, this is primarily a Republican bill. But several Democrats support it or voted for cloture, including Lieberman and Biden.
Democrats at least try to insert amendments that would provide exceptions for those who entered bankruptcy due to medical expenses, our troops, and a few others.
Republicans shot those down."
Nice to see this got threadjacked into one more RvD party.
Right before the title, despite any tempering in the body.
That aside, I would have to think that in this economy, the passage of the bill will have to be balanced out by other party's ceding something else eventually.
The large sum of money owed, I would think, would have such dramatic repercussions that some other balancing force would have to come at some point. Not to say it couldn't really hurt some people first. Not to say that it won't make some people think twice either.
On this one I'm not smart enough to think I can forsee the effects of this. For all I know, enough people may be scared off of cards, like me already, that the CC companies themselves start to feel the pinch.
i dunno.
