Sabramerican, when I posted a question to you about just this type of thing, you told me it was "One of the most absurd posts ever addressed to me on FR." Okay, here it is. Not hypothetical, not made up, and not, as you put it, "Too crazy to merit a response." I always believed that your response to me on that post was simply a dodge, because you didn't want to answer the question. You said you believe in captialism. Okay, here's a Chinese firm making a profit by using skin from executed people to make cosmetics.

It turns a profit. Would you invest in it?

The original thread was here, http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1579125/posts. The point I was making was that capitalism is not the end all be all, and that the fact that something turned a profit was not, in and of itself, enough justification. When I questioned you on whether or not killing people was okay, you replied by becoming insulting. Here it is again. According to your posts on the other thread, if it's legal in the country of origin, it's okay, as long as it turns a profit. This is legal in China. Is it okay to traffic in dead body parts of executed people if it turns a profit?

I haven't a clue what you're post intends to prove.

People make money from all sorts of evil things. What does any of that have to do with Capitalism and investing.

Are you claiming because some Chinese company is doing evil then that tars all trade with China?

Recently Americans have been arrested for trading in human remains. They did so for reasons of capitalism- making money. What does that have to do with the rest of decent everyday American capitalism?
