Oh, yes sorry about the typo. I mean Debt. If people how are in Debt, should they have to pay less then an average person. Or should they just have to pay normally and feel bad about getting in debt.
Ok i understand now. Well it depends. If they got in debt by drugs and alcohol i think they should learn there lesson and suffer. If it is not there fault like the movie The Pursuit of Happinesses, then they should get some financial aid and discount.
There really shouldn't be any moral implications involved with debt, or the ramifications thereof. If a person is in serious debt, that is reflected in their credit rating, just as it would be if they declared bankruptcy. There are certain things (such as child support or alimony) that cannot be discharged in a bankruptcy hearing, but the debtor still has to essentially rebuild their life regardless of what happens. These are all legal or economic issues and as such are amoral, meaning morality does not apply to them. Even if a person falls tens of thousands of dollars in debt, they can go through a legal process to alleviate that burden. So whether or not a person "should" pay off their debts is not an applicable question here - at least in my opinion.
I saw an awesome SN ski once, an advertisement for the greatest way to make yourself financially secure, "Don't Buy Things You Can't Afford." If you can't follow that simple rule it's not my problem.
