The CEO of Ford Motor Co saw no reason why the company should spend 
additional money for high-temp solid-state components in Ford's 
ignition system since there had only been a few dozen fatal accidents 
caused by engine stalling on hot days.  When the story got into 
newspapers, Ford's CEO was given his walking papers.  Those who don't 
see the term: corporate ethics as an oxymoron need to take a look at 
Ken Lay's Enron.
