That's simply untrue.

You can find at least one of <almost any profession> in America who will happily sign off on dubious work in exchange for $$$.

That's capitalism for you.

Yes, there are people with high standards and ethics, but it'd be hard work to find a professional niche that was solely made up of people that couldn't be influenced by a chequebook.

An ugly building is a no brainer .. it's not like it's teetering on the verge of collapse and about to kill all the residents.

I can't believe there are many architects signing off for money on dubious designs, since they wouldn't be architects for long as soon as one thing went wrong with the building.
