Uh, filming porn is legal too. So I guess, by your logic, if he'd been offered a job as a fluffer that should be a-ok with the wife as well, as long as it's "legal".
I wouldn't work for a tobacco company. Their products might not be illegal, but now that effects of tobacco are well-known, working for one of those companies could be viewed as immoral, as you are knowingly promoting products that cause addiction and death.
As far as "freedom of choice" goes, there is a vast difference between choosing to smoke and promoting cigarettes as a salesman. Like the difference between a drug dealer and a drug user; the penalties for being one or the other are disproportionate if caught because being a dealer is seen as actively promoting harm, as opposed to the user who is mostly affecting only him/herself.
