Alt: Are there any jobs which are 'immoral'?
( WormuIus, Fri 9 Dec 2011, 10:35, 109 replies, latest was 14 years ago)

I don't think any jobs are fundementally immoral
but within many roles there can be a way to act immorally.

I don't think any legal, paying job is by definition immoral.
I think there are jobs that don't fit with my own moral conmpass and there are jobs that I find hugely distasteful and that I wouldn't do.

The work I do has involved me working for charities and I declined the chance to work for Christian Aid because I find them distasteful, but I couldn't argue they were immoral, obviously.

You fucking knock-kneed bucket of arse gravy.

Since it's entirely in someones power to "just say no" then you can always argue this isn't immoral.
Being a loan shark or a drug dealer is probably justifiably immoral.

So morality is determined by law?

Well that's one of the obvious 'immoral' jobs, isn't it?
I certainly wouldn't do it, I find it incredibly distasteful. So to me, yes, I find it morally wrong. But it's not my place to impose that on a wider audience. There's a hell of a lot that feels wrong to me, but whose to say I'm right?

they shouldn't have to police themselves, they're a trade and they sell to whoever they can to make money, like any trade
they can't be held responsible for the actions of their customers in the same way that arms dealers can't be held responsible for things like the dunblane massacre
(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Fri 9 Dec 2011, 11:00, Reply)

They don't just police themselves they have the UN and international treaties to govern them
They spend MILLIONS finding loopholes, deliberatly breaking laws where the punishment is less than the profit on the crime and lobbying governments to stall or stop any stricter controls.
