Theft

Two men meet on the street: one big, one little. The big man pushes the little guy down onto the sidewalk, takes his wallet, and walks off. We consider that wrong.

Now two different men meet on the street: one smart, one stupid. The smart man engages the stupid man in a negotiation, empties his wallet, and walks off. We do NOT consider this wrong. In fact, the smart man will get his picture on the cover of Fortune magazine next week.
