It places limits on who can file for chapter 7. If you have the ability to pay a certain amount over time, you are forced to file a ch. 13. It also makes more debt non-dischargeable in other ways. Incidentally, it does nothing to limit the ability of corporations to file for a ch. 11 reorganization, screw their shareholders, pensioners, and employees, then walk out of court with a nice clean balance sheet.
