No offence but this is the most rediculous arguement a person can use.
Social responsibility is not a profit and loss sheet where by you offset your bad actions with good actions .
The arguement that "his good actions make up for his bad" can simply be argued by the fact that "his bad actions make all his good actions count for zip"
Social responsibility doesnt work in this manner.
Economically speaking the externalities outweigh the marginal benefit that society receives from his actions.
With your arguement then it should be ok that anyone who donates all proceeds from their illegal activities should not be prosecuted for their illegal actions,
Sorry but that arguement just doesnt fly.
