9. Then the legislature can pass a no bankruptcy law for gambling loans
Mon May 6, 2013, 11:58 AM
May 2013

like Congress did for Gov't student loans
and the banskters will get even MORE money to sock away on off shore accounts.

That's the difference between mobsters and banksters...
mobsters would break your legs if you did not pay back the loan
Banskters just buy up a Congress or 2 and pass laws that say you can never get off the hook for the loans,
then sell the loans to collection agencies
who threaten to have you sent to debtor's prison.
