Default Satellite Strategy - Playing the MONSTER stack close to the bubble

This is a general question and I am pursuing a theory of mine, wanted to know if anyone had any comments on it. My roommates both disagree with me on this, so I wanted to ask the general 2p2 consensus.

Satellite into a big tournament (doesn't matter the size)... we're down to 21 people. 15 get seats, 3 other cash something minor and insignificant. We have 32k chips and are the chip leader after aggressively dominating the table and having people just donate chips to us happily. The second stack overall is just over 21k and no one else is over 18k. We are on a relatively short table, having recently taken out the only guy over 7k. The rough chip counts are (32k, 4 in the 6k range, 5k, 2 and 3k, and a shortly at about 1800). Blinds are up to 500/1000 with antes.

Here is my question. Given this table dynamic and structure, is it a good play to open shove every hand? Excluding total garbage hands. So maybe, open shove the following range {A2+, K2+, 54+, 64s+, 22+} ? If we lose, we are still chip leader. If we get called, we probably have good equity. If not called, we take more chips away from short stacks.

Thoughts?
