A moral situation
#1
A moral situation
Lately on television I have noticed an increase in favoring a particular stance.

The basic premise is having to do something wrong in order to do something right.

Is it morally ethical to do something wrong in order to ensure that something right is accomplished in the end? Would you ever do something wrong in order to do something right?
