One example of this unethical way of business, was his way of acquiring “Allegheny Steel Company.” The company was beginning to become quite the competitor, using a new method that allowed the efficient, and effective production of steel. The company’s new method was so successful, they were able to undercut Carnegie’s own prices. However, Carnegie began spreading false rumors of the steel being manufactured by Allegheny Steel Company, implying it was ineffective, spreading alarm to their buyers. He was able to hurt their company and take the the reins. Once Carnegie had acquired the company, he declared that the process that was being used was efficient, and would save the company both time and money without compromising the quality of the steel, contrary to his prior rumors. Carnegie spread lies about a company that was prospering, and earning more profits than him, for the reason of hurting their business and acquiring their methods. This completely loathsome, deceitful business practices is nothing short of immoral, and depicts Carnegie as a robber
In Zoot Suit by Luis Valdez, the author communicates the larger idea that violence is the result of injustice in a given system by including scenes in which Henry is about to kill Rafas at the Saturday night dance, strikes a guard and gets sent to solitary, and is reported to have gone back to prison, killed an inmate, and gotten into drugs.
In Gorgias, Socrates was having a conversation with Polus and through this dialogue Socrates reached to establishing a hierarchy of wrongs. Socrates classified that doing injustice is much worse than suffering injustice. Another idea Socrates states is that doing wrong act and escaping punishment is much worse than being punished on that act since punishment can remove the evil from a person’s soul. I am going to discuss these ideas as I think that doing injustice is not as bad as suffering injustice.

The first point of criticism against victim participation in restorative justice processes arises from scepticism about an apology to the victim as a way of dealing with criminal matters. The perception sometimes exists as to it simply being a way to get away with the crime.106 Members of the public should thus be educated to understand that restorative justice is more than a mere saying sorry, but in the context of victim offender mediation or family group conferences it rather affords the victim the opportunity to confront the child offender with the real and human cost of his or her criminal actions. Another concern deals with the possible secondary victimisation of the victim in the case where the offender pretends
Bryan Stevenson knew the perils of injustice and inequality just as well as his clients on death row. He grew up in a poor, racially segregated area in Delaware and his great-grandparents had been slaves. While he was a law student, he had interned working for clients on death row. He realized that some people were treated unfairly in the judicial system and created the Equal Justice Institute where he began to take on prisoners sentenced to death as clients since many death row prisoners had no legal representation of any kind. In Just Mercy, Bryan Stevenson focuses on some of these true stories of injustice, mainly the case of his client, Walter McMillian.
Cincinnati Police homicide detective Jennifer Mitsch has a message for the those who intimidate and threaten murder witnesses: You have met your match.
Growing up, in school all we really learned about the struggles of black people were slavery and segregation. It was glossed over and glammed up to seem as if once the Civil Rights movement was over African Americans received equal rights and then everyone held hands and sang Kumbaya. This is far from the truth, since the end of slavery in 1865 up until now in 2017, African Americans still deal with intolerance and do not receive equal rights. Carol Anderson has written a book that is extremely powerful, yet infuriating and depressing. Anderson does a fantastic job of showcasing the systematic oppression of African Americans throughout history.

Natasha Singer does a great job of conveying her message that companies sometimes push themselves onto people in unethical ways in “On Campus, It’s One Big Commercial” by using anecdotes, bandwagon, and also negative diction. One time she used an anecdote she talked about how American Eagle gave college students some free American Eagle apparel to help freshmen move into college while wearing an American eagle shirt that was made special for the move in event. The students were also giving out American eagle pens, water canisters, and coupons. These students did not even tell the administration that this (American Eagle paying students to advertise) was taking place (837). She uses multiple examples like this throughout the story, but she uses this one in order to show how some of the actions that are taking place on the college campuses are not even known about by the administration.

Sooner or later justice is almost always serve but at times injustice takes over.
