Hi Michael,
I feel your suggestion/question has a right to go on it’s own topic. It has a great potential for brilliant discussion and not really relevant to interest rates. So here it is . It is started from George Soros:
My answer is very definite yes. The rest is secondary and doesn’t count . Many nations, different cultures have different moral values. So as long as it is legitimate in the jurisdiction you make your business it is OK to do. It is as simple as that.

I don’t want to comment about your Hitler remark as I feel it is highly unappropriated to make such comparisons in this context. So I’d like to take just last part of your answer and discuss - is it enough to be within the boundaries of the law when making money?Originally posted by Michael Croft
Hi Mikhaila,
His methods may be legally permissable and even acceptable to some, but does that make them right. Hitler had the legal right to send millions to their deaths, was that all that counted too? I personally think there is a little more at stake than legitimacy when making money.
