Re: Moral thought experiment. Would you or wouldn't you...
In this thought experiment, there's no benefit to supporting the dealer. In fact, the dealer seems to be scalping a free product. Taking the scenario as written, the unclaimed cars are a free and infinite resource and anyone would be daft not to take one. The dealer is clearly in the wrong business.
If the dealership's existence is by some mechanism necessary to the production of more cars, then it would seem morally best to buy from the dealer. If the dealer in fact owns the infinite cars, but cannot prevent their removal, then to take one would be theft. The analogy is obvious. = )
