and with the recent bank bailouts, is there a difference between the company granting credit and the government?
There are ways around everything. Find a friend or relative who's terminally ill, have them get the phone/debit card/account for you. Set up a private corporation which is wholly owned by an offshore corporation, and use that to buy/lease/purchase things. Etc. The list is long.

Talking about this stuff reminds me: has Kbarrett come on board yet?
"Life is a bitch. Shit happens. Adapt, improvise, and overcome. Acknowledge it, and move on."
You don't even need to go that far if the soon-to-be-gone friend/relative is willing to get the account for you under their name and your PO Box at a Postal Express store because as long as the bill keeps being paid, they don't care who set it up.
