Everyone has their own set of values. I have a friend that is very VERY religious. So religious that he home schooled his daughter until she was in high school and only taught her religion based lessons. So religious that he goes to church at least 3 days a week and volunteers nearly everyday even if this means he can't work very much and his family is on the brink of bankruptcy. His philosophy is that God will provide for them what he feels they need.

Yet he has absolutely no problem at all pirating movies and video games off the internet. When I suggest that it is somewhat a form of theft he tells me he would have never bought them anyway so it isn't. When I point out that his lack of deciding to buy them doesn't change the fact that he has them yet never paid for them and that whether or not he feels it is theft, it is still against the law, he just doesn't see it as a bad thing.
I can only speak form my personal experience on this one and what I see in the news... movie types wanting to pass out tax funds yet shooting anywhere except LA because union rates are too high, taxes are too high, rentals are too high... funny isn't it? pay a guy $25 to flip a burger but don't pay a HIGHLY trained technician $35-$40 to make their movies for them
