It's kind of surprised me (ok maybe disappointed is the word) how easily people tend to shrug off something inherently wrong and/or destructive because it may happen to be "legal" There are so many examples, but I'll go with the latest. Taxes--IMO using legal loopholes to avoid paying your shard of taxes is unethical and though legal, should be admonished, not accepted or celebrated. It's one of the reasons the country is in the financial mess it's in.
It's a disturbing trend in this country of which the Legal vs Ethical issue is just one small part. We seem like we're becoming more accepting or tolerant of dishonesty, unethical behavior and outright bad behavior than we've been in the past. Have we really become that jaded or have we just been pretending to care about others and the common good all these years?
just wonderin.
