I agree that profit is the most important thing to businses , but businessmen should also take responsibility to their business.

First I think businessmen should concerned about the environment. There are so many polution caused by company the reason why they dare to do these things is that is not illegal at that time or they taught no one would found out that. In my opinion company should take more responsibiliy to what they do, also the laws are always too late and the justice denied.

We are living in the same world as same as the businessmen. Businessmen must have the moral to do what they should do what they shouldn’t. It is too difficult to make a law fit every situation now.

Of course, the Concorde was an amazing plave. It was amazing to see and amazing to fly in. However, there were some problems. First of all, yes everyseat was first class.
