If it was as easy as declaring bankruptcy I don’t think anyone would ever receive alimony or child support.

- nmjohn 3y agoI've read it numerous times after initial agreeing with you, and I don't think that is the case. To me it sounds like they are saying if declaring bankruptcy were that easy, nobody would be receiving child support because everyone who owed it would just declare bankruptcy to get out of paying it.

- ipnon 3y agoHey I appreciate the comment! I meant “if you could simply resolve debts mandated by the government by declaring bankruptcy, then people would declare bankruptcy just to absolve themselves of owed alimony or child support. Since this is not the case as far as I know, it would seem that Elizabeth Holmes would still be forced to repay this fine even after declaring bankruptcy.” I clearly have some work to do regarding the clarity of my comments!
