The Enterprise and Me

I was part of the Enterprise all my working life - and I did not like it. Not at all, because it was always unethical.

I became an Electronic Engineer in 1959 (from the U of Illinois) and worked for the FAA, until 1980. The FAA was a Federal Agency, as its name implies, but was also part of Big Business - now renamed the Enterprise, to make it sound better;

This always had a problem with ethics - even now, when the Computer has taken over. And the problem has always been simple to state - Greed. Everyone wants to grab what they can, at the expense of everyone else. And this situation has gotten worse, in the 21st Century.
