Dr. Voss is an Associate Professor at Georgia State University and teaches, among other things, business ethics. He spoke about the recent crisis in the economy and said the root cause was because people who believed in Free Enterprises forget that it is not free. It comes at the price of honesty. And honesty was recently seen only rarely on Wall Street.
