Dicussion 3 ( Business Ethics)

  (Sum up answer in 5 sentence)

Discussion question:

Think of a company you know – whether as a customer, employee, supplier, etc. -- which is earning substantial profits in spite of the 2020 Covid pandemic and resulting economic downfall. How would each of the theories of justice in economic distribution – utilitarian, libertarian, or egalitarian – apply? Explain your reasoning.
