I would post something more than this, but what I have to say would probably come off as very cold... so, I'm not going to. (Unless you really want me to ).

Go ahead. I'm not wearing earplugs and as I've already stated, i'm no expert in economics. Could someone with some knowledge on the subject enlighten me, why is it so bad to default? Could there have been another way, other than resorting to the IMF for help? Why are things so bad now, we've been running deficits for decades now.
