Yes Brian we better set up a regulatory structure with the govt protecting people from craigslist and protecting disneyland from people like me and sdr. That way everyone can be protected with taxpayer money.

I don’t see what the government has anything to do. Those are all private contracts and dealings. It’s up to the people entering into contracts to live up to their end of the bargain.
Anyway, it’s obvious to me that morals are out the window when there’re financial benefits.
FWIW, when a guy defaults on his mortgage.. he’s giving the house to the bank. He’s 100% living up to his end of the bargain. (The fact that the government subsidizes the bank’s loss has nothing to do with the defaulting debtor).
When you buy and trade Disneyland tickets in violation of the contact with Disneyland, you’re committing fraud upon Mickey Mouse and the whole Disney family.
Anyway, where does morality begin and end? And where is the good example for the children?
I would say that 100% living up to the terms of the contract is moral. Violating agreements through deception for a small financial gain is something else altogether.

I think you’re confusing legality and morality, briansd1.
While circumventing Disney’s ticket distribution mechanisms is definitely illegal, said action’s immorality is in dispute. Clearly you think it’s immoral. Conversely, walking away from a mortgage is clearly legal. The morality of said action is, again, in dispute.
In both cases, briansd1, you use the letter of the law as the measuring stick for moral behavior. I think you are smart enough to exercise better judgment.
FWIW, I think you are an articulate, prodigious, and effective button pusher. Press on, sir.
