"Governments should not be responsible for regulating businesses and other organizations. Instead, society would benefit if the organizations themselves assumed responsibility for establishing and enforcing their own standards and regulations."

The following appeared in a memorandum from a company's marketing department.
"Since our company started manufacturing and marketing a deluxe air filter six months ago, sales of our economy filter -- and company profits -- have decreased significantly. The deluxe air filter sells for 50 percent more than the economy filter, but the economy filter lasts for only one month while the deluxe filter can be used for two months before it must be replaced. To increase repeat sales of our economy filter and maximize profits, we should discontinue the deluxe air filter and concentrate all our advertising efforts on the economy filter."作者: apan 时间: 2003-4-10 14:15
