In a recent poll run by CNN and Opinion Research, most people said they believe the U.S. government should step in to boost the struggling economy, but not without hesitancy.
The poll found that:
- 79 percent of people are “worried” that the economy would get worse if the government failed to take action;
- of that 79 percent, 40 percent said they were “very worried” and 49 percent were “somewhat worried"
Interestingly, 36 percent of those polled also said that they were “very worried” that the people who initially caused the economic problems would financially benefit if the government stepped in.
41 percent said they were “somewhat worried” that the problem-causers would benefit from a government bailout.

I am in the process of going bankrupt. With the economy in crisis, would it still be beneficial to file, or will debts eventually be “lost”?
