Ethics

Both bad bacteria and good bacteria form a symboic relationship to survive.

We have evolved from bacteria. But people have never changed their stripes.

Bad people still form symboic relationships with each other to legitimise their primarily self-serving practices.

They have evolved enough to go largely undetected, and in most cases to appear ethical.

But the world is full of these bad bacteria that create suffering at the expense of nature, animal and human life, wellbeing and health.

Bad bacteria don't think they are bad, nor do they think they appear to be bad. But they compromise on the wellbeing of others, in order to prosper.

It is hard to identify who is a risk to society unless victims speak out or an advocate speaks out for them.

That is the only way to truly know.

Society has not got a grips on understanding what is ethics. And unethical believe usually believe they are ethical.

Ethics:

Honesty at all times under all situations.
Looking out for the best interests of others as opposed to own personal preferences and desires.
Declining to provide a service you are ill equipped to provide and providing an honest explanation as to why you are unable to provide this service. Ie "I don't believe I have undertaken the type of training needed to provide you with this service".
A view to work as service rather than wealth necessity. Working towards union rather than exploitation.
Making sure an act is in the best interests for both parties involved. Doing things in the Light.
Making sure nobody is disadvantaged from an act or decision.
Considering the wellbeing of others over sense of self, pride, false prestige and personal gain.
Not viewing life dividedly ie, not putting peoples into 'classes' and considering you are superior because of false prestige, fame, accomplishment or wealth.
Understanding that service is the greatest act and self-interest or self-obsession is not glamorous.
Giving when needed.
Providing true and honest information rather than painting the picture the way you want it.
Gathering facts and information before forming opinions.
Being true to your word. Ie "I help people" providing facts to substantiate your claim on who you think you are and what you think you do.
Making opinions subjective rather than suggestive.
Asking for permission and consent.
Sticking to a practice that is in your realm of expertise.
Providing honest information about who you are and what you do.
Not compromising on ethics in order to gain wealth.
Not claiming you are a plastic surgeon when you are a doctor.
Disallowing incorrect medical groups, societies and associates to form. (This is akin to preventing biofilm bacterial colonies from forming). Everything MUST contribute to the wellbeing of all.
Recognizing how you can utilize your own talents and abilities to benefit society.
Not harassing someone who doesn't conform to what you believe is normal.
Setting by example rather than critiquing others.
Making sure you are educationally equipped to give advice before you give it.
Recognizing when people who are in need and offering services that may be able to assist them.
Not denying people of their rights due to speculative opinions or religious indoctrinations.
Being assistive not demanding.
Not taking advantage of nature, animal or human life for personal gain. Harnessing nature is acceptable.
Doing things in the best interest of all, not merely looking out for yourself.
Developing empathy based decisions in and out of the court of law. Less focus on punishment and more focus on forgiveness when there is no intent to harm.

Is how we treat and grow our food ethical? Do we have restrictions on what chemicals can be used and how much? Our natural food appears to be abnormal and there seems to be a strong pressure on farmers to provide aesthetically appeasing foods.

Everything seems to go wrong with the privitisation of anything because the demand for money overtakes ethics

Would we thrive better if major food chains, lending institutions and shopping facilities were government owned and community focused?

I believe that the consumption and manufacturing of meat is unethical, when society has advanced to a level of skill where they are able to manufacture plenty of healthy alternatives. Animal exploitation should only be allowed as necessity.
