The only thing he is exposing is that humans have no problem accepting free money no matter where it came from. The asshole that thought up this scheme is more twisted than the people accepting the money as they really don't give a shit.
If your mom needed 50,000 for a life saving operation, would you accept a hand out if you knew the money came from street drug sales, or the sales of underage porn?
YES, you wouldn't fucking care where it came from, or who the person was - but everyone will sit back and hold this bullshit moral high ground because it's a 8 dollar an hour telephone answering girl accepting it on behalf of a business entity.

Well first, the terrible I refer to IS the accepting of money no matter where it comes from. I wasn't going anywhere with abortion. Second, you can't equate what someone will say to save a loved one with what someone will say for a donation... I'm sorry, that's just stupid to say. If he had posted a vid of someone listening to extreme crap to obtain money to save their loved one, I would not give a rats ass and I don't think many other people would hold him or her at fault. Really bad analogy guy.

That's just sick. I didn't know it was happening all over the country either. From the last discussion: http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=205244.0
That organization is terrible.

So you are saying that accepting bad money to save a loved one is ok, but accepting it for a business is not?

No I'm saying nodody is going to give a rats ass including me. That's just them, they're the one that has to live with it. This is an organization. Of course it's different. Yes, you made a lousy analogy.

Ok. So moral standards apply to companies, but not to individual people?
