I consider myself a generally honest person and have never stolen anything. I started to steal a hat once, but felt guilty before I got out the door and set it down.

But I'd carefully milk a superuser account for all I could.

It's obviously still stealing, but the difference is that this is the kind of money that can improve my families situation for good (and their families, etc).

Would I feel guilty? Probably, but I'd be willing to take that in exchange for a life without concerns over money.
