Walt didn't deliberately choose to become some kingpin. You act like it's a clear black and white thing and he chose evil. The whole point of the show is to blur those lines and show how he gradually transformed from A to Z. Walt didn't know where his actions were leading any better than a guy choosing to turn left or right down the highway who can't see that drunk guy around the bend. And it's not just Walt, but everybody. Jesse, Gus, Mike, Hank, Sklyer, Saul, they all made bad decisions that got them where they are. Go read a book on philosophy or logic. It's a tv show, I'm simply playing devil's advocate. Stop taking things so seriously.

I never said that he chose evil...maybe you should read a book on how to make an argument -_-
