2315 – CHAPTER 7 DISCUSSIONS and CASE STUDY
1.
According to Pozgar, “The words of Abraham Lincoln, so passionately spoken, resonate true today. Political corruption, antisocial behavior, declining civility, lack of integrity, and transparency, and rampant unethical conduct have heightened discussions over the nation’s moral
decline and deaying value system.
Do you think the decline in ethical behavior be reversed as citizens struggle with a broken legal system inundated with new laws? Ethics and the law are not mutually exclusive—they are intertwined. Without the two, we would become a lawless land. The words of Abraham Lincoln, so passionately spoken, resonate true today. Political corruption, antisocial behavior, declining civility, lack of integrity and transparency, and rampant unethical
conduct have heightened discussions over the nation's moral decline and decaying value systems. The numerous instances of questionable political decisions, executives with shocking salaries, dishonesty at work and school, sexually explicit websites, and the entertainment media have contributed to this decline. Legislators, investigators, prosecutors, and the courts have been quick to speak moral truths but continue to be slow in
action.

There are a lot of riots going on. Also, people now a days seem to not care much about each other and the consequences of their actions do to others and to our country.

Yes. By the fact that he refused to see the patient, and treated her badly since the first phone call he had about Mrs. Rivera. Dr. Burditt
denied her treatment, and even insisting on transferring her because it was the best for the patient, he still denied to go see her to make sure her condition would allow her transference.
