Re: Are you morally obligated to repay a loan that you take?
Talk about mental gymnastics. Wow! That's so head-in-the-sand bat-scheit crazy that a response is almost impossible.
What you describe are not options for you to pick and choose at your convenience. They are penalties for not adhering to the terms.
I'd be interested in seeing the wording of your contracts and would be specifically interested in the wording that lays these out as options subject to your choice.
And I maintain that morality does not require the paying back of loans made by banks or other financial institutions.
When I take a loan, I create an obligation to adhere to the terms of the contract - which I do. However, the terms do not require that I pay back the loan. At least, none of the loans I've ever taken require that. They have all contained provisions that allow me to not pay back the loan and there's nothing immoral about taking a course of action that the contract has defined
