Microsoft On List of Most Ethical Companies

walterbyrd writes "Microsoft is among the world's most ethical companies, according to a list put together by the Ethisphere Institute in New York. Overall, 110 companies made the prestigious list, including Microsoft and 35 other newcomers. The complete list was reported by Forbes."

Godwin agrees

Don't worry, Hitler received many similar awards too,

Must have cost....

Must have cost a lot in bribes for M$ to get on the most-ethical list.

Kinda like having a "Most Delicious Feces" competition.

Forbes?

[orangebook]

A list of ethical companies released by Forbes? What will be next, list of best people released by Hannibal Lecter?

In related news the very same list was in another list of most unethical lists.

Sure, they're ethical

You have to be when you are reporting in to your parole officer weekly.

Ironically, you almost hit upon a perfect Score:5 post. You were corporate bashing (I assume, Microsoft and the other companies on Forbes' list), which is always worth a few points. However, you failed to mention a few evil Republicans (by name) that you hate, and you also failed to love, and I mean absolutely love, socialism, statism, and the outright slavery of everyone to the government.

Maybe they buy really soft toilet paper.

Indeed. Deep in the heart of Africa, there is a tree which grows only on a few square miles of land. This tree provides habitats for several species of endangered birds and primates. It's fruit provides for the well-being of a small primitive village. And its pith makes for the finest toilet paper on Earth. So Microsoft has purchased the grove in its entirety and is chopping it down for the well-being of executive rear end.

Bitter?

Life must be hard on a poor neocon like you, what, with people refusing to bow down before your obvious superiority, and raptly listening as you expound upon the inerrant wisdom of the Federalist Papers and the work of Leo Strauss. Clearly no reasonable person (50% of even those paragons of infinite virtue The Founding Fathers were on board... how could lesser men be expected to comprehend?) could ever know and understand precisely what you're talking about, yet still consider it a load of horseshit. Also, that must make them an evil socialist, because everyone knows that there are only two real political ideologies: Patriotic Republican Americanism, and Socialist Nazi Sovietism.
