Now Cory:

There is a world of difference between performing a job that 
you "hate" (out of a need to earn a livlihood, or for whatever 
reason), and becoming a DE even though you hate the Dark Arts.  If a 
person sincerely believes that killing is morally wrong, he is not 
going to become a professional hitman, no matter what the 
incentives.  Are you seriously trying to equate that (or becoming a 
DE even though you hate the Dark Arts) with getting out of bed every 
day to go to a 9-to-5 job that you hate?
