Morals and Ethics

1. What do you think of Swartz’s comment: “A business can do well and do good.” Explain.
2.Do we live in a cheating culture? Why or why not?

1. I think a business can do well by how its actually doing (economically) in the real world. And, I think a business can do good when it is doing what and how the owners want the business to be ran. Such as they are doing well with workers and their pay, instead of where if they are doing well with profits. Either way, whether the business is doing well or good, the outcome is usually leaving the owners and workers feel satisfied at where they are at with the business.

2. I think the definition of our culture is cheating. People cheat for everything and everybody knowns it. People cheat in school with tests and homework, people cheat in sports, maybe with spying or if it's not a high level starting a race before the whistle, or even our government cheats, such as when President Nixon with the Watergate scandal. It's almost like we are taught to cheat instead of just do it ourself from all the people around us. Do I think it's right? For me, it depends on the situation completely.
