A bankrupt who owns a house has the option of either paying the mortgage or losing his home. The court cannot reduce the amount

owed; its choice is to discharge the entire debt or leave it whole. Congress considered a bill that would permit a bankruptcy judge to adjust the terms of mortgages to aid debtors in holding onto their houses. Proponents argued that this change in the law would reduce foreclosures and stabilize the national housing market. Opponents said that it was not fair to reward homeowners for being irresponsible. How would you have voted on this bill?

Answer: I will vote in favor of the bill.

Explanation:

Based on the above scenario, I would vote in favor of the bill. The argument here is in the case of bankruptcy, if an individual is willing to pay their dues but because of unavoidable financial circumstances, the individual seeks more time or other assistance which can help so that the person will later pay. I believe it's a good idea which should be supported by the law.

The court should have the right to decide terms of mortgages to help debtors in order for them to pay their debts in future rather than forcing them to leave the house. It will also help the country deal with issue of facilitating housing to maximum number of individuals.

In my opinion, the judge's decision should be given prime importance as the judge must evaluate the intention of the debtor and the capability of the debtor to pay the debts
