Ethics plays no part in this reality. The term 'ethics' is only ever used to justify the unethical, eg ethics committees find that it is fine to use embryos in science. It is about applying the veneer of morality over the top. Ethical decisions are down to the individual. Unfortunately, lots of people think ethics is what the law allows, or what government says, or even what teachers teach. Most individuals don't take the time to realise or uncover and then act upon the ethics they have innately - aka following one's heart/conscience. Worse still, many paychecks depend upon the unethical, so don't expect any critical introspection or changes soon.
