From an  article the lowing linked that I'm reading.
My department head once asked all
the teachers to get a response from all
students to the following question: “Do
you think it is okay to break the law if it
will benefit you greatly?” By then, I had
been teaching for a while and was not
surprised by answers that left a young,
liberal, white woman colleague aghast.
“Yeah” was the favorite answer. As one
student explained, “Get dat green.”

Anyway do you think it is ok to break the law if you will benefit from it greatly. I, for one, say yes.

Didn't really benefit some of them, they lost everything, but it helped the rest of us.

Sometimes though.

Depends on what law you're breaking, I guess.

frankly if you think it'd be ok to rape or murder someone to benefit yourself you are a fucking sociopath and need to check yourself into an institution

More like:

Do you think it is ok to break the law if it will benefit you (and not harm others)?
Yes.


Or maybe that's just where morality comes in.

I'm not going to steal my neighbor's tv and/or rape her, but if she grows some plants that I happen to like and purchase them off her, there's nothing wrong with that.

A line for rape? That's madness! All we do for gang rape is find any kind of orifice and put a penis in it

I grew up in communist Yugoslavia, and we loved standing in line for stuff. Like water, bread, rape etc...

Ah, that explains it. My version of gang rape is much more capitalistic.

Murdering all the world's idiots would benefit me greatly; I could live with less cynicism.

But, that's a BS argument, and so is this question. The benefit to you is of no use when arguing the law, the only other possible qualifier is morality. Obviously, that is not considered in this general question; mtb slapped part of it in there.

Thats a no-brainer - No, of course not.
Unless its OK for other people to break the law which may then disadvantage you.

Society has laws, on the average being part of society is more advantageous for individuals than not being part of it.

If the laws don't suit you by all means leave, Somalia is pretty free and easy on laws these days, try there.
