Labelagr/dis:Bankruptcy is easy way to escape
Question text I am now going to read out some statements which people might make about bankruptcy. Here we are thinking about situations in which individuals go bankrupt, rather than businesses. Looking at the options on this card, I'd like you to say to what extent you agree or disagree with each statement... Bankruptcy is an easy way to escape from your money problems/financial problems/responsibilities.
