Why are people still required to pay their debts to credit companies who were essentially bailed out by the government?

Well, if you have to pay a debt to a company, and a representant of the company has the papers necessary to prove that you have the debt, but the company is bailed out by the government, you still have to pay. Some companies are bailed out because they have no more money, because they gave the money to other people and then expect them back. Not paying can be called fraud, and some people have been jailed for profitting on these companies. The criminals saw in Econimic sites that the company`s funds are almost 0, then take a loan, the company is bailed out and the man goes with the money. Of course, the government doesn`t want this, so if you have a debt even to a long-time dissapeared company, you still have to pay it. So choose wisely when you have a debt, or you`ll have to give back money to people that died long-ago.

What does it mean when a company writes off a loan and sells your account to some other company?

When a company writes off your loan, from an income and accounting standpoint, they are saying that your loan will not be paid. When this occurs, they will send a transaction line to one or more credit bureaus indicating that they had to charge off your account as a result of non-payment.

When your account is sold to another company, the current organization either believes that they have gotten the most value out of the account or does not believe that it is cost effective to waste any more money working on the account. Either way, companies sell loans to other companies all the time.

When an account is sold off AFTER being charged off, the buyer is usually a distressed debt (collections) organization that specializes in the collection of that type of debt. Usually these buyers pay very little for the loan because the likelihood of collection is quite low.
