Definitely not executioner, escort or stripper. Probably not ICE agent.
Wouldn't want to be most of the others but not for moral reasons.

All except an abortion doctor and dental hygienist for due to either threat of danger, general moral beliefs, or lack of adequate compensation.

Does this assume we'd be competent at them? I couldn't be an abortion doctor (or most any other sort of doctor really) regardless of personal feelings because I get squeamish at the sight of blood.

I’d refuse everything except FBI, CIA, and TSA.

I have no moral opposition to being an abortion doctor, I just don’t want to work in the medical field in general.

Well for a start all the police jobs; I'd be a terrible policeman as I am horribly weak. The exception being TSA agent since that probably doesn't require me to pat down people and what not.

I'd also refuse to do prostitute, stripper and executioner.

I'd be fine with the other 4.

Yeah - pretty much only airports as entities like the MTA, New Jersey Transit etc. have their own police and security forces. But the TSA do literally pat people down, though most officers don't actually have the power to arrest.

Only abortion doctor (sane)

I might even be an abortion doctor if it's a good-paying job. Money > everything, that's elitism 101 for you, folx.

Real elitism means being "above" money. Grubbing for pennies is a mark of the middle class.

"Elitism" means so many things these days! One can be a literal construction worker and still be considered an elitist for disliking moocher states!

Anyway, in all seriousness, my answer is still the same, but for different reasons--I support both prostitution and the death penalty being legal and could be convinced to 'do' both of them.

The rich invented humility to keep the rest of us from finding out how badly we're being screwed.

All of them, America has a lot of better jobs and some of the ones listed aren't even high-paying.
