Our laws are a constantly shifting mirror of our ethics (through the prism of "everyone" and "political reality")

Look at divorce, abortion, women's property rights, environmental obligations etc etc

The GP is well placed to say if a company is acting legally but unethically changing the law is often fastest and simpler fix -most eapecially for whole industries (hello banking)
