Is it for more profit on their end, or is it to give more to charities. He could be donating to charities to make himself look popular or get more business. Millions of $$ is pocket charge for Billionares. It depends on the motivation of the person. If he sincerely believes that doing business this way is for the greater good then he is merely an good person who needs counseling. If his practices are so bad that they MUST be stopped then the players could explain the reality to him and if he refuses to heed, then that would either suggest insanity or an alterior selfish motive (which would make him evil). The players would have to make the call to try again or kill him. This provides the always interesting moral dillema. But ultimately if the characters kill him out of the desire to help people they are still good. But no one is concieously evil. But they are sub-consiously evil. perhaps he believes he is doing good but really that is just the emotional response of the smiling poor people that he gives charity too. Hitler believed that the Jews were out to take over the world. which sounds good right? But he did'nt try diplomacy first. Good and Evil depends on the subjective value of a sentient life. How hard will you try to make peace before using force? How bad will you feel when you take life? Do you wish you did'nt have to kill, or do you see it as another nessissary death for the cause of "good".</blockquote>
