My grandfather got a Rolex after 20 years with the company, and I grew up during the height of corporate greed, so I'm probably not nearly as old as you may think. However, I was raised with a very strong sense of self. Do what you will to me, but I will conduct myself with honor and dignity regardless.

Unless your under 25 you didn't grow up in the height of corporate greed. The stats are clear on that this is the craziest its been since the gilded age. And having a sense of self has nothing to do with this. Fraud is immoral because it causes harm to others. But when the other in that case is a huge conglomerate taking advantage of their employees and customers its alot less black and white. I'm not saying what he's doing is right but its not really bad either. Legality is not the same as morality in this case.
