The bankruptcy reform bill is named "Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention
and Consumer Protection Act."

How do its drafters and supporters justify inclusion of the words
"Consumer Protection" in the name?

In what way does this Act give consumers any protection that was
not given previously?

It's just doublespeak.
