I personally don't think you are born with a great understanding of business ethics. Is CEO pay too high? Are drug prices fair? You think gut feeling is enough

  Not everyone who understands the rationalizations buys them -- I'd argue quite the opposite. I also understand that if your goal is to go far in the business world, it is very important for your sense of ethics to align in a manner that will encourage rather than inhibit your success. The rationalizations are both generally useful and effective for this purpose. Not very ethical, though.

    Are you really advocating that managers should 'not' study ethics as a university course? I just can't comprehend this position, given the history of management blunders and scandals I've seen or read about, all with varying degrees of social impact. I'm floored but also impressed by your rugged individualism :)
