I will start this posting by saying that I’ve known many individuals that own or have owned a VW diesel car, and have, up until the scandal loved them! Most have previously commented that they love the fuel economy and the fact that they were marketed as “clean diesel” vehicles, and even received a MD state credit for driving environmentally friendly cars – the same credit that Toyota Prius drivers received.
Below is a CNN article, “The Volkswagen Scandal in 2 Minutes.” Do you see any similarities between this situation and Enron? Copy and paste the link below to your browser to watch.
Post your thoughts and comments to the above questions.
There is a compilation of news reports on the video feed in this article. Some are very good providing a timeline of the discovery of events, others are worth watching. Unfortunately, there are 15-30 second commercials in-between each video. I suppose there’s opportunity everywhere to make a buck! Question is: “Is there any moral responsibility to do something without a profit motive in business”
