There's another disconnect here: you're treating contracts as a moral imperative, rather than as a civil agreement with failure clauses to be rationally considered. The government does the latter; why should an individual who makes a contract with the government treat it differently?

What part of the contract says: "if you don't want to pay back the loan, no problem, we'll just forgive it!" ?

I've never heard of a loan contract that says that.
