- sidewndr46 5mo agoI'm not entirely sure there are rewards for depravity, but your second point is certainly true. The more willing you are to work within the bounds of "legal, but probably reprehensible" the more business opportunities you have.
- littlexsparkee 5mo agoif we take the definition of depravity as moral corruption, i stand by the word choice - much damage (social, ecological) has been countenanced as the 'cost of doing business'. you can argue amoral or immoral but my bet is that most know these transgressions are wrong at heart.
- JohnFen 5mo agoThat working within the bounds of "legal but reprehensible" gives increased opportunities is a great example of how our system rewards depravity.
