Your allegiance is to money, and doing anything to acquire it. There are several terms for that type of allegiance...

This isn't about survival or eat or be eaten and you know it. It's about your acknowledging that you'd do anything for money regardless of anyone's moral stance. You stick with your greed. I'm sure it will get you far in life.

I have respect, honor and allegiance to my wife and kids. Not Michael Phelps. There nothing illegal about selling a picture like this. It isn't about money grubbing.

Do you really think Michael Phelps is going to suffer any for this? I think you are naive if you do. He was making millions before the Olympics. He makes even more now. I'll bet he makes money off this so-called scandel. More than the seller by a longshot. Bad publicity is not always bad. So really who is the winner here? I'd say Michael Phelps. At the very least it's put his name out there again. Staying relevant is a plus.
