Joe Biden helped the already bloated anti-consumer credit industry make it a LOT harder even for people who were in dire financial straits through no fault of their own, such as from massive medical bills, to file for bankruptcy relief. I've never been able to get too sentimental over ol' non-ordinary Joe since. When push comes to shove he'll pose for pictures with the little guy but he'll stand with the oligarchs.
