I find the idea of killing for money(when there are other possibilities for income) abhorent, no amount would be enough.
Although, I could kill people for other reasons(them being worthy of death, greater good, anger, for family or friends).

Couldn't kill a child, could let them die though.

I contiguously wish for the extinction of mankind. I would not hesitate to inflict any amount of pain to further my agenda, if I thought I would get away whit it. If I didn't suck at it so much it would be immediately discovered I would never hesitate to lie, cheat, and steal in any amount, etc. In fact, when I get to act as a mad scientist or dark lord I take pleasure in the cliché.

What do you mean by price? I wouldn't kill for money, but only because the risk of capture far outweigh the value of some pieces of paper or increasing a counter in a bank computer.
I do, in fact, have moral principles, they just are completely alien and unrelated to human values such as life or suffering. I also isn't very likely to hold even those when it would severely hamper me but...

Yea, I'm evil.

Yes yes how very shocking

Hawkfrost already did that one.

Anyway, this thread reminds me of this. The thing about liver and kidneys, at least.

WOULD YOU GUYS PUSH THE FAT MAN OFF THE BRIDGE?

[Aqizzar]

I!  I would push the fat man!

Fuck'em, he's fat.  And if he's fat enough to stop a bizarely arranged, uncontrolled trolley, then he's got to be detrimentally fat.

[Nilocy]

Seriously, if i was paid to bumb someone off, it'd have to be a fuckload of money. A human life, no matter the crime they've commited, is still a life that does not under any circumstances need to be extinquished.

[deadlycairn]

I'm generally friendly enough. However, if I'm threatened, angered etc. I can go over the top. Not killing people though - there are repercussions for that.

[Strife26]

Never. I shoot the person who offered it to me though.

I could never do something evil, unless I felt that the good outwayed it (popping Hitler, for example). "There are a hell of a lot of problems that can be solved with a bullet to the head"

Strife: That's an odd position to take for someone aiming to be a soldier. Or at least has soldier-related fantasies.

No, no, you don't understand. Killing Iraqis is good because they are evil, and therefore killing them would not be bad.

[Mulch Diggums]

This may seem extremely...Cold, But, I would gladly throw that switch, or push the fat man. Theres a chance he's a great person, maby an extremely smart person, but theres also five possible great people who will die if I dont, so, the possible gain outweighs the possible risk (of losing a very valuble member of the human race)

[Cheeetar]

I would push the fatman. Why? Because 5>1. I don't care if I'm causing the death by pushing the fat man, and if I stand back and let the 5 die I'm not causing it. That does not influence me in the slightest.

[JoshuaFH]

Wait... how the HELL did an analogy about pushing a fat man get started?

And I state my position with an Electric Six song:

Well nobody wants to burn in Hell
But everybody's got a soul to sell.
When I was young my mama gave me some advice
She said "Boy, don't you know everybody's got a price?"

If you think you wouldn't commit atrocities to obtain something valuable, then you just haven't been tempted well enough.

[Fishersalwaysdie]

I wouldn't push the fat man, maybe the train contains even fatter men.

[umiman]

It should be pretty obvious what my answer is:

I'll start a bidding war for my services. Expiration is death. Whoever offers the highest price gets the services.

I think it's fair. Just because the fat man is fat does not mean he's not useful. Wealth is usually a good measure of potential societal benefit (though it does not mean someone is productive). If all the other people on the train were hobos or hippies, they wouldn't be able to afford the saving fee. A wealthy man is certainly more useful in terms of utility than a bunch of poor folk.

Don't get me wrong, a LOT of poor folk is a powerful force, but that's because they can pool their resources. In this analogy, if there were 90000 poor people on that cart, then they'd be able to outprice the fat man.

It's not a perfect system, but you work with the limitations of what you have at the time. Of course, I can't free them until I recieve proof that they can pay.

I don't see how you can stop a trolly going downhill with wads of cash.
