Of course not. Sometimes people actually want to do the right thing. Kant's point is that the right thing is what it is regardless of how people happen to feel about it. Bottom line is the categorical moral imperative, which can be simply translated as "what if everyone did it that way?" If everyone defaulted on their loans, no one would be making loans, so defaulting is wrong. For someone who arrives at things with such ponderous logic, Kant's CMI is remarkably close to the good old Golden Rule, isn't it?
