Um....yes and no.
It's about 50/50 here at work. Out of 2 4X4 owners, 1 has agreed it's ok, and the other wants to know what the point is.
I, myself, don't see why it's "WRONG, BAD, STUPID, or whatever" to lift a 2WD truck.
IMO, I dont see the point of lifting a $x$ that never gets dirty.

4x4's are expensive.
$x$ is my way of saying that not everyone can afford a 4X4, but like the look of a lifted truck. Since this person is on a budget, and cant afford to purchase a 4x4, but can afford a 2WD and a lift, would be forced to go that route.

This thread rocks!
Oh yeah and I will never own a 2wd. With a V-8, 4wd truck i know I can handle just about any project or problem. To me a 2wd truck is like buying a v-6 mustang. You just half assing it
Flame away boys

Flame away boysJust depends what your needs are. Or if you know how to drive or not
This isnt directed at anyone in particular...but I honestly dont think a lot of people with 4wds know how capable a correctly setup 2wd can be. If you have a 4x4 you either puss out and put it in 4wd before you even get into anything hairy, or else stick it in 4wd the moment you feel a slip or anything.
Hell, a 2wd probably makes you a better offroad driver because you have to be a little more careful and know what the heck your doing (have some brains), instead of some idiot driving a 4x4 who just sticks it in 4 wheel and hits the gas thinking they can do anything since they have a 4x4.
