Re: Lawyer bashing on CD
Engineers can be just as unethical as lawyers. Sure, it's more often than not indirect. For instance, a lot of people in this forum will or currently work for a defense company; engineering the next fighter jet, automatic assault weapon or bomb.
The fruits of their labor are usually used responsibly and for the correct reasons. Unfortunately, they can also be used to kill civilians accidentally or purposefully when they end up on the black market.
Not every engineer creates insulin pumps or better wheel chairs, some create better methods for killing people.
To wrap things up, engineers are no better than lawyers; often we do good, but sometimes we do bad.
