Is it unethical to sell credit card machines and service? Many libertarians and certainly most Liberty Dollar activists rail against the current debt-based system, of which credit cards are so much a part.
Recently I was presented with an opportunity to sell credit card processing and equipment for a very high commission structure, and as I am looking for additional income I am moving forward with pursuing this. The way I see it is, credit cards are not un-libertarian and anti-liberty per se. It is possible to have credit cards and credit lending while still having a silver and gold standard and economic liberty and self-ownership, although we don't have this right now. So what do you in the libertarian community think of this? Is it ok to take this job or should I feel guilty about perpetuating the credit card economy house of cards and facilitating more debt and more power for the banking industry, if in fact that is what I would be doing?
