Quoted: Gee, since it's all for money, then there is no difference between a Mafia hit man and a US soldier doing his duty in Iraq, since they both are willing to kill for money?
How far can we take this?

You can take it very far.
Mafia hitman does it for the money and his percieved family and his loyalty to it. The US Soldier does it for his loyalty to his country, and for money.
The only difference is this so called morality that folks impose upon society. Both of them kill for something. One is just more acceptable according to OUR society.
The Mafia guy is not accepted by OUR society cause of all the cold blooded killings he does.
To the Iraqi extremist, the US soldier is wrong and does cold blooded killings.
You see its all a matter of perception and acceptable morals of each individual or group of people.
There is no difference!!!
Quoted: Actually, being a stripper or being in the sex trade IS different than being a bank teller... and the motivation is NOT just money. Sometimes it is the attention, sometimes it is the drugs, sometimes it is low self-esteem... etc, etc
Consider this.... someone who is a stripper has put a price on something that most people would only share with someone they are intimate with. What part of being a bank teller is relevant in your sex life (other than the occasional fetish dress up game )?
IMHO, FWIW, yadda, yadda.... someone who can put a price on something that should be so special and personal has something fundamentally fucked up with them.

Working at a bank or anywhere is much the same thing. Human beings as a whole look for attention or acceptance in different avenues. Strippers by flaunting themselves. Bankers by working hard and getting recognized or promoted.
We all put a price on what we do. We turn down jobs cause its beneath us or do not pay well enough.
Again once you break it down to basics, there are no differences except for societies perception, so called morality, and religious beliefs.
