Re: ethical – frankly, I’m surprised 20% *would* do unethical things. That seems, unfortunately, high.
The real question though, is what is ethical? It’s more likely that without a solid foundation to decide between ethical and unethical, that people will do unethical things that they believe are ethical.
So, that question is ultimately meaningless aside from showing that 20% are so corrupt that they don’t even care if something is ethical or not (according to their own undefined standards of ethics, which could be quite low to begin with). Yikes!
