Maybe you think that bankruptcy is for deadbeats and irresponsible people, that's not necessarily true at all.

I find this attempt to use our government to benefit a few private companies and shield the very wealthy from any consequences repulsive.

Moral bankruptcy is the way Fred Clark describes it.
