Pay attention to the bottom half.
Seems that the credit card companies want to rush through the laws to make it harder for Katrina people from claiming bankruptcy.
Take that poor people.

Yea, there's apparently a clause in the new bankruptcy bill stating SPECIFICALLY, that kids who have Pell grants have to pay them back, if their education is cut short due to a natural disaster.
Dems in Congress are trying to make that not apply to Katrina victims now.

i still think its funny that due to legal fees and such, you need a bunch of money (the one thing you presumably don't have any of) to actually file bankrupcy...
