<<The number of personal bankruptcies is at an all time high.>>

... partly because the bankruptcy laws are going to be made much tougher very soon, so a lot of people are filing in a hurry to beat the new tougher rules.

Divorce and medical bills are leading causes of banktruptcy. Those weren't invented yesterday. The clinto admin as one of its 1st initiatives tried to hijack the entire health care insurance industry and put it under control of beauruecrats. Too bad they didn't try to do something feasible about the problem.
