From the time of Adam until the Israelites crossed over into the promised land, families and tribes ruled the world.
From the time of Joshua until the crucifixion of Christ, armies ruled the world.
From the time of Rome until the Age of Enlightenment, religion ruled the world.
From the Age of Enlightenment until the fall of Communism, politics ruled the world.
From the Berlin Wall for as far as the mind can imagine, business will rule the world.
Isn't it obvious how business dominates society today? And we have this particularly subversive mantra that says "I should be able to do whatever I want, whenever I want". The beauty of this ethical code is its simplicity. The ugly flipside is that it allows for no objective moral compass to guide our society or business institutions, and this and all future generations will pay the price. Unfortunately with their freedoms.???
