I do not like isk farmers and i will kick them where it hurts as soon as i see one ingame just out of fun. My corp has been abused by them a few times and they dont contribute to nothing.
But put yourself in their position. Its just a bunch of ppl having a job. The employer arrange their internet connection and they "work" for him, making money. Now they might not have other possibilities to make money in rl. Remember that countries like China has a very high unemployment rate. Why wouldnt they take this opportunity?
Stop riding your shiny white horses. If this was your only chance to make a living you would damn sure do it yourselves. Most of us gamers have a decent living with nice food on the table every day, a job, well educated and in most cases not a problem with surviving the daily hazards.
How many of you play poker for money on internet? For you to make money you have to rip off someone else on the other computer. Remember that. Thousands of addicts use all their money on playing poker, clinging to the small chance of winning the big bucks. And you are the ones that take their money and makes their life a misery. And dont tell me that they have a "choice". Addiction is a terrible thing, and not easy to cure. Loads of addicts in eve too, but they are fortunate enought to not having to make a living out of it.
Isk farming is nothing compared to that. And dont really harm you at all. "They cause inflation bla bla bla" Its a game, with virtual money that means ****e, for most of us so cry me a river. Try instead of seeing why the ppl are doing it. They most likely need the money they get from it. And they get to have some fun while working 
As i said to begin with, ill kill em as i would kill others at every opportunity i get. And the majority of players would too. Does that make me better than the isk farmers? I think not. Killing a poor guy that have mined for a month to make his battleship is no better. Still i would knock the **** out of him if i get a chance.
Again, try to see the other side of it instead. Talking bout etichs and morale in game is just funny. It happens every day in our rl, where it matters, where it has an impact on our rl. Eve is a game. Nothing else.
