What prevents me from opening >50 credit cards, maxing them, and filing for bankruptcy?
That's fine if you can do it, have no assets that can be seized, and know what you're gonna do with your life while you wait for the 5 years (dunno what it's like in the US) or so before you can earn big money again

There are a few rules with Bankruptcy. You have to be a little bit careful not to violate on of the rules or they will deny your bankruptcy.
Your plan will work if you do it slowly. You have to show that you took the loans in good faith - with the clear intention of paying back the debt.
I guess a real question is if there is a line where you suddenly in trouble for fraud. I assume their is a line, but where is it? Our fucking president used bankruptcy as a key strategy, so it's obvious you can get away with a lot of bullshit if you know the rules.

Nothing as long as you don't own a govt entity money. It will go to collections,they will "bother" you with mail, try to call you until you merely tell them not to until the debt is sold off and eventually charged off. It ruins your credit, but there's no debtor's prison (anymore).
