Wealthy people and companies walk away from contracts and obligations all the time when they are no longer beneficial to them. I'm glad middle class folks are starting to realize that.
I'll just use this example because people will recognize the name. But Donald Trump was unable to make the interest payments on his new building in Chicago, so HE sued the banks for not letting him negotiate new, lower terms. So basically, he couldn't pay his bills so he sued his creditors claiming they asked for too much money. Money he agreed to pay at one point..lol. That's business as usual.
Now, there are long term ethical issues and social consequences when the working class begins to behave like the wealthy class, but that's a different story all together.
