Comment on Paying consumer debts is basically optional in the United Statesparent

People with 20k of delinquent debt and the means to pay it are a bit of an edge case, though; mostly people that collections agencies go after will not have the means to reasonably pay their debt, at least not all of it. This encourages agencies to be more aggressive; they want _their_ debt to be first in line for anything that does get paid.
