Re: Ethics and Job-Hunting
If it is legal, I'd write about/for it...Most of the areas I'd avoid are legal, at least to some extent. But that doesn't affect their ethical status one way or the other, so far as I'm concerned. "Legal" and "ethical" are two areas that sometimes overlap, but the match isn't perfect (to say the least).
Just as importantly, if I relied on legality as the criterion for determining ethics, I'd be abdicating my right and my obligation to decide these matters for myself. Maybe I'm too cynical, but I can't do that.

"Humpty Dumpty was pushed: head over heels all over the wall,
Humpty Dumpty was pushed: nobody noticed at all,
And all the king's horses and all the king's men
Gathered round Humpty and kicked him again;
And they called for a priest and a couple of friends,
And they all stood around and chanted, Amen."
-Tommy Sands, "Humpty Dumpty Was Pushed
