i liked the restaurant analogy.

i used to have the same feelings of guilt when i worked in bars. not about serving too much to someone (there are laws against that) but about serving the same lonely souls night after night. i pitied them while at the same time, i took their money and helped the fry their collective livers. the reality of course was that i didn't MAKE these people do anything they didn't want to do. even the alcoholics were sober before they ordered that first drink.

we are in business. more explicitly, we are in the sales business. whatever our commodity, there will be some of us less scrupulous than others.
