I would raise them and sell them as cheap labor.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

Seriously? I see nothing but good outcomes weather its bad or good.

Good : I raise people back to perfect health, like before they died, but perfect health. And before using my abilities, charge people an obscene amount of money to do so. Presto, Im fething rich.

Bad : Zday happens.

Well it really depends on the definition of dead. I mean, with a flick of the wrist you could bring vamps and ghosts into the world, and we'd be werewolves away from living in the world of darkness.

Yeah I would do it. I've always loved necromancers and hated how they are always portrayed as evil, I'd break the mold for sure.

If you could bring them back as they were when alive, that has benefits. Bringing them back almost zombified/corpsified. Not good.

Only if they kept their old memories (which means as they were when alive, or at least close to it such as vampirism). Would be interesting to have a conversation with philosophers of old...

You don't have to "encourage" the undead.
