I hate these questions. It's not you and I'm going to explain my reason.
The reason? I'm morally obligated to say no. Seriously. If I say yes, what'll happen? I'll be dubbed the girl with no morals. The girl who is greedy. A murderer.
Society FORCES me to say that no, I would not kill a human for money.
When the answer is 'yes. Yes, I would.'
You are probably looking for a 'no' answer. Sorry, not from me. But let me speak my side.
First of all, I need money. Before you all say, 'You don't NEED money' Yes I do if I want to eat and survive. I'm poor. and I also want to go to college. Which is expensive.
Still haven't convinced you, have I?
Didn't think so.
Ok, also, if I could choose, I wouldn't pick some homeless person who nobody would miss. I would pick someone who is critically ill and wishes do die.
Please hold your Dr Kovorkian jokes for later.
I would either pick that person or a person who has wronged many. Like rapists.
To say murder is wrong is just like saying lying is wrong. I mean, we know that there are situations in which we have to lie. I mean, not to hurt someone's feelings or whatever. And some times, we have to have someone dead. I mean, death row anyone?
Now, I don't want to spark a capital punishment arguement; I'm only making a point.
And there are people who want to die, want relief. If I could choose one of them, HELP them, I would. And get paid for it? Sure.
WOW, I can see you all scoffing at me. I've broken so many moral laws. Well, it's true. And I'm sure if you all thought about it, you'd agree with me.

Good question, but although the answer is no just now I've never been put in the position therefore if I was given choice I really think the answer is I don't know.
It would depend if you knew the person,
if so do you like them,
would the world miss someone like that,
or if you knew that the person was evil and didn't deserve to keep living.
these are factors you would have to consider and then of course there's how much money.
could you get away with it.....I watch CSI too much and think not.
so would you survive in prison.

Hi Reaper,
well if you had money, it looks as though someone beat me to it and killed you a while ago...
You look pretty good on it all things considered!
I'm even too late with the kiss of life;-)

I wouldn't because if u do get the money u will not get to use it because u r goinna be put in prison if u get caught so its pretty much point less to kill someone for money

If I was a raised as a legionnaire, I might have been a hired soldier. But not in this time and world.

Why not? Once we die, we have no consciousness; obviously it does not matter. So, they wouldn't care, and in the long run neither would you--but then again, then there would be no motivation for the money.

No, that would be morally wrong. Doing so in defense of family friends or self are different, and acceptable, if this is the only way.
