    paragraph_quote: This subchapter does not annul, alter, or affect, or exempt any person subject to the provisions
      of this subchapter from complying with the laws of any State with respect to debt collection practices, except
      to the extent that those laws are inconsistent with any provision of this subchapter, and then only to the
      extent of the inconsistency. For purposes of this section, a State law is not inconsistent with this subchapter
      if the protection such law affords any consumer is greater than the protection provided by this subchapter.
