The rules were set by the supplier and they played within the rules. Don't play the game if you don't like the outcome.

- rtpg 14y agoEthics aren't about the "rules".
- jchavannes 14y agoYou will always have bad people. The more people that exploit the system, the faster the system will change to be more 'fair', otherwise you're just handicapping yourself. Look at all the patent lawsuits. As they said in my business ethics class: ethics schmethics.
- tedsanders 14y ago(1) It's not clear that acting unethically will lead to better rules and more ethical outcomes, in general [and actually, in some cases the opposite will happen - if you're corrupt it makes it easier for others to be corrupt] (2) Handicapping yourself is the whole idea behind ethics and morality. Sometimes it's more important to do the right thing than the selfish thing. Attitudes like yours are so disheartening to read. I totally disagree with your sentiment.
- jchavannes 14y agoMoral != Ethical. I'm guessing you think Foxconn replacing workers with robots is bad too?
- tedsanders 14y agoHow is moral different from ethical? In my mind, they are pretty synonymous. And no, I don't think Foxconn is bad for replacing workers with robots. Why would I?
