Bankruptcy Roundup
by Kerim
A special Roundup just on the Bankruptcy Bill:
- Elizabeth Warren, professor at Harvard Law, and frequent commentator on Now, has teamed up with Josh Marshall to create a special Bankruptcy Bill Blog.
- How credit card companies make money.
- Paul Krugman on how “half of bankruptcies are the result of medical emergencies”
- Elizabeth Warren’s Frontline interview for their show on the Credit Card industry.
- Democratic senators who will never be president.
I’ll add more to this list as I find them.
Do the ‘minorities’ referred to here include Asian Americans or only Afro-Americans?
I assume that this was a comment on this post?
As you know Asian-Americans spend a lot on coaching and training, so those who do tend to do well on standardized tests. So to the extent that coaching helps, they should continue to do well. However, the report also indicates that the emphasis on writing may hurt immigrants. I suppose it will take time to see how they grade these papers – whether presentation of ideas or grammar is more important.
