The slower folks will then have to pay for their own upgrades in order to keep their houses competitive in the market.

There is nothing in bankruptcy laws that says that bond holders will be the first screwed either. In fact the laws says they are the first to be paid. That sure happened. Not.
How can you believe in ANY benevolence on the part of this power mad administration. Power is their mantra, laws mean nothing to them.

NOT a single thing in any of their 'rush to pass' legislation has preformed as claimed it would. ALWAYS bastardized to increase their power and control.
