The ruling ideology prefers to talk about individual ethics rather than the capitalist system.
The art of living demands that our interest in bringing forth flowers in our family life equal the interest we take in bringing them forth in our window gardens.

Inventing sources is not a crime in and of itself, although it certainly violates every code of journalistic ethics known to man. A criminal fraud case would require that the reporter’s deceit had been malicious and resulted in financial gain.

Any tool can be used for good or bad. It’s really the ethics of the artist using it.
If you’re going to figure something out, study ethics. You can ask What’s the answer? What’s Right and Wrong? What I learned is that nobody knows the answer and there is no Right and Wrong. So I’m incapable of becoming a fundamentalist because there are no absolutes, there’s always a what if.
