11. It is 1933. You are in Berlin, Germany. Somehow you find yourself in position to effortlessly steal Adolf Hitler's wallet. This theft will not affect Hitler's rise to power, the nature of World War II, or the Holocaust. There are no important papers in the wallet, but the act will cost Hitler forty Reichsmarks and completely ruin his evening. You do not need the money. The odds that you will be caught are less than 2% but if caught you will be executed. Are you ethically obligated to steal Hitler's wallet?
I dont know if I'm ethically obligated, but the hell with it. I'll take his wallet and bugger up his night. If this is all Im able to to, I'd do it without hesitation. Why not? Passive agressive move - no probs justifying it.
