I'm not defaulting, nor am I even suggesting anyone else default. I'm countering your incorrect argument that undermining the US student loan programs is a negative consequenece of default.

In any event, I don't share your simplistic views about the morality of doing so. Anglo-American law actually favors breaching contracts when it is efficient to do so. Also these particular contracts are made in a predatory fashion, they are contracts of adhesion between the most powerful entity on the planet (the US government) and naive 18 year olds.

Try to worry a little less about your sacred honor and a little more about your fellow human beings. That's what's morality should be about.
