Full disclosure: Trump bad! Biden good!
Impressive considering he reports directly to MBNA.
The article misrepresents it a bit because he didn’t just back it. He actually WROTE that bill.BAPCPA made it harder for consumers to file for Chapter 7 by imposing a “means test” for Chapter 7 eligibility, and by substantially increasing the cost of filing for bankruptcy.
BAPCPA’s passage was one of Biden’s long-sought goals as a senator. Not only did Biden vote for the legislation four times between 1998 and 2005, but he was so singularly committed to its success that he inserted it into a foreign-relations bill in 2000, and later was the sole Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee to vote for the bill.
Biden also consistently voted against efforts to soften BAPCPA’s blow on vulnerable populations
Lmao

It’s why I never voted for that piece of shit. The very architect of my indentured servitude (presumably but not demonstrably) wanted and wants my vote. Wouldn’t even piss on him if he was on fire. On fire much like Aaron Bushnell who set himself on fire trying to break through this country’s propaganda wall to bring attention to a literal genocide enabled by the executive orders from this same piece of shit Zionist.
How far gone is electoralism in the US when the incumbent can run virtually unopposed while enthusiastically enabling a historically brutal genocide?
Fun days ahead!
Don’t forget this article:
How Joe Biden helped build a financial system that’s great for Delaware banks and terrible for the rest of us.

I think people are downvoting you because you didn’t start with that disclosure.
Disappointed in the comments here so far. There’s a cardinal rule of improv that also works well for many other things in life, politics included: “yes, and”.
This is a great change that will save folks money and make the country just a little bit fairer. Celebrate that, and then use the momentum to push for more. This builds alliances and a shared vision, instead of devolving into petty squabbles around direction.

You’re disappointed but personally, it’s hard NOT to feel a great deal of schadenfreude when:
the guy who, for his entire career, has openly accepted bribes in exchange for legislation that is economically violent toward his own constituents now presumably wants the exact same constituents he sold out to vote for him
and is using small, meaningless crumbs to gain that vote when he could have just NOT ENABLED A GENOCIDE.
If this situation doesn’t make you a true believer about there being no hope, I honestly don’t know what will. I lost hope in 2016 and have just been laughing through the bullshit since then. It’s exactly as real as pro wrestling at this point.
