Might As Well Be Hung For A Sheep As For A Lamb Edit Meaning

1.

Expression used in resentment as a reason for doing something deemed unethical when one knows one is going to be accused of doing that thing anyway, particularly when there is much to be gained by doing it.

They are going to accuse me of doing nothing and/or of working and drawing the dole at the same time, so I might as well be hung for a sheep as for a lamb.

See lies, lazy, ridiculous, up yours
