There's a commenter saying that they were forced to do it.

>Being able to force someone to do something is not justification for doing so. Further, it is ridiculous to try and label that as 'beneficial for everyone involved'. By the same token you can call outright slavery under threat of execution 'beneficial for everyone involved'. What tripe.

That's simply a logical conclusion from your own thought process. You keep saying that any job is okay if the person is desperate. i.e. it's okay to force people to do what you want if they've got no other choice

  • yeah no sorry. there's clearly a person who thinks this should not be done. the way to interpret what they said is that they are forced to take this option.

    this is incorrect.

    I did say that its okay for people to be forced to do the job if no other option exists (with some caveats).

    If you disagree, tell me how and be specific about it. What would you rather do in this case?

    Don't beat around the bush, try being specific.
