Morality

I just read where MDs at the NIH are not receiving whistle-blower protections. Just the fact that we have such a term as whistle-blower is a symptom of the disrepair of modern society. Morality is doing what is right, each and every time, not just when it happens to be convenient. But the wink and nod approach to transgressions has created a don't ask, don't tell secrecy that belittles our constitutional republic. If we want to be able to trust our gubbermint, we have to be able to trust ourselves. That starts with number one - morality is a personal issue. Quit avoiding it and always do the right thing. Expect other people to do the right thing. When they don't, let them know of your dissappointment, then get on with your life.
(And realize that the right thing is relative. lemme)
BTW - anybody else notice that there seems to be a conspiracy to withhold anti-biotics from the public here in Oregon. Perhaps its the AMAs way of telling us that the powers that be don't like our suicide law or our medical marijuana law. Conform, conform, conform. Or we will dissipate you.
