ie should the whole of society be warped to fit the desires of those who benefit most extravagantly, and who are least willing to see everyone prosper?

are you happy to see a class in society that feed vampiricly on your financial life blood...who couldnt care less how wide the inequalities become so long as they can drain you dry?

I think that many people are beginning to see that the concept of lassiez faire capitalism (which in reality is not practiced in its pure form anywhere) is not some sort of golden ideal that we should be working toward.

Capitalism needs checks and balances just like everything else because there will always be people who will s**t on other people given half the chance, no matter what economic system you decide to use, This whole modern notion that "whats good for business trumps everything" in my opinion needs to die. People still need incentives to invest, create, and innovate, but that has to be tempered with whats best for the common good, and what's humane.

This question can be dealt with somethin called the good side of everything and a bad side of everything....Bio Piracy and Animal testing and Globalisation has condemned to be right but there are ethics allowed too, If Wal-mart gives away a million jobs its a good sight to the chinese economy (because they are willing to work at the rates below the reforms) and for the ILO its unethical, WOM and Viral Marketing though they come very rare in Economics is unethical in some aspects and its better in many aspects....Dumping and transfer pricing are ethical and moral but they have a different side too, If Bill Gates and Warren buffet are sure rich but they are also wrapping it up by social responsibility towards the society, true there are inequalities and economic ethics has been an oxymoron because the DOGS AND CATS OF THE RICH have more food and comforts than the POOR, Thus ethics and economics do not go well bcos there will anyway be loop holes of the law...The rich are rich and the poor are poor

Economics with ethics is bad business. In the business world you have two choices: First to make money no matter who gets in your way and secondly to enjoy your job. If you can not do the first you won't achieve the second.
I am sorry that you seem to be upset by this simple fact of business life but the bankruptcy courts are full of those people who think the same way that you do.
The solution is to move to a desert island and become self sufficient and leave the benefits that unfair financial manipulators have brought into your life.

you mean like an indian casino that opens up and destroys your life and you ask them to ban you from the place and they just smile and say no...you go to GA and every week the rooms are more and more crowded with decent family types, who led good quality lives before the casino opened up 3 minutes away. Just to get some milk at the storeyou have to drive by it...to get aywhere...and again,and again you just get nowhere.
I think Satan is in the casino and in the guy driving past, who just can't not pull-in and try. ust for fun, go there and sit out front and watch the people walking out...watch on a Friday night, on christmas eve and new years eve, how many people are out in the parking lot sitting in a dark car because they dont have a dollar left and they're waiting for their friends to get broke so they can go home.

A good economy can only be achieved, by adopting good ethics, in a Business or in a Society. Why one should allow some one to drain his blood ? Every individual should know his responsibility, particularly social responsibility, because " man is a social being". Live and let live policy will remove, disparity.

What you describe is capitalism. Satanism as far as I can tell does have ethics, they're just different to Christianity, whereas Capitalism has none whatsoever. Zilch. Not a sausage.

As a long time advocate of socialism, I can only say that I am extremely unhappy to be sucked dry by parasites with money who don't work.

he he heh...no, satanism is unrelated to economics.

There is nothing wrong with making money and stimulating economic growth overall. What's bad, immoral and wrong is that these high rollers influence our government to create policies that further polarize the distribution of wealth.

There is a prevailing thought in the republican platform that big business will create charitable foundations to serve the less fortuante if the governement will offer them an incentive to do so. While that may look good on paper, it does not work in actual practice.

I comprehend your factor (i think of) yet i think of you're making a mistake in language. God isn't a ethical God, he's a ethical God. Values discovered interior the Bible, like the ten Commandments, are ethical, no longer ethical. If God became a ethical God, we does no longer have the ten Commandments, we'd have the ten rules. 8^) Morals are absolute. Thou shalt no longer kill (homicide). No questions. God says that is incorrect so that is incorrect because of the fact that is against God's will. Ethics are consistent with human questioning, consistent with effects. working example, the yank scientific affiliation might call a custom of experts to be certain no rely if or no longer it incredibly is a marvelous thought to maintain somebody who's loss of life of maximum cancers interior the ineffective of night approximately his/her subject. And no rely if or no longer it incredibly is a marvelous thought would be desperate by ability of the attainable outcomes, no longer on absolute rules of correct and incorrect. would desire to attorneys promote? would desire to vehicle mechanics use used areas devoid of telling the shopper? would desire to instructors supply their very very own opinion in discussions of cutting-edge activities or politics? those are ethical issues. And ethics might exist even devoid of God or faith. because of the fact they're no longer likely a question of correct or incorrect, they're consistent with what's a marvelous thought and what's probable to reason undesirable effects.
