If the bill makes it harder to file, isn't that a giveaway to credit-card companies, which lent money under one set of background assumptions and have now had those rules changed? And if we're going to assume people are rational -- your assumption, I think -- shouldn't we assume that they understood their bankruptcy options when they signed up for credit cards, and now are having the rug pulled out from under them?
