This article seems to be addressing the issues of ethical decision making in the work place. The article says that 3 in 4 Americans experience ethical problems in the work place. This seems to cause the workplace environment to be somewhat volatile. 1 in 10 Americans believe that an ethical issue in their workplace will or could lead to a corporate scandal or nationally televised event. Ethics is always a problem because people go to work to make money. If an opportunity arises that could bring them more money and all they have to do is look the other way what would you do? That is the main question. Today most people will look the other way. This will increase your short term wealth but could bring your long term wealth/life into jeopardy. Unethical decisions will ultimately hurt the company's image in the eyes of the public. If this doesn't hurt the image it will definitely hurt the internal company moral. In the end, it all comes down to the golden rule and do to others as you would have them do to you. This is easy to say, but even harder to live by.
