Playing somewhat raggy cards on a limp for 50c from the button is a better move, since the button is worth 25c + the risk of being raised out of your hand from the blinds.
This is an important point. It is similar to the logic in a recent CardPlayer magazine article. Position is key and there is no place I'd rather be than the button.
