"It offers debtors a fresh start and provides fair treatment to creditors."
Bankruptcy's purpose is to give honest but unfortunate debtors relief (a fresh start or orderly repayment) while ensuring creditors are treated equitably under the law. It is not simply a ban on future borrowing, not free of future financial consequences, and not a way to avoid paying debts one simply doesn't want to pay.
