Abuse is a crass term and so inappropriate when it comes to MS! Money laundering, illegally foreclosing on homes, gaming LIBOR rates - these are examples of program abuse. Customers who legally MS simply represent the moral hazard that misbehaving banks invited upon themselves.

Afterall, "Moral hazard is a situation in which one party gets involved in a risky event knowing that it is protected against the risk and the other party will incur the cost."
