Ethics Help Businesses to Smoothly Advance Society and in the
Cannabis Space are Rapidly Moving Beyond Illegality
Mentor Capital, Inc. (OTC Markets: MNTR) is pleased to be on the
cover in the “In Defense of Business Ethics” Fall 2014 edition of
Management Today. Mentor CEO and article author, Chet Billingsley
explores how “businesspeople are the stewards of the assets of
society” and the excess value they produce improves our world. They
are the players that advance the game while governments have only a
referee-like role. Understanding the different and often
religiously-based ethical systems that vary across our shrinking
world reduces friction in business dealings. This improves the slim
margins that compound to make our children’s lives better than our
own.
Mentor Capital also comments on the inherent challenges it has
taken up in the cannabis space today. How exactly does one be law
abiding when marijuana is legal at the state level but illegal
federally? What actions are safe if the overlooking of the law is
subject to change with changing officials? How long will self-help
and loyalty have primacy in marijuana dealings over contract law?
If medical marijuana clearly helps seizures, pain and cancer, and
substituting safer cannabis for more dangerous drugs could save
10,000 lives per year, how long before the marijuana stigma is
reduced to wine-like status?
Management Today was launched in 1966, has a written circulation
of 600,000 and has similarly featured Papa John’s, Neiman Marcus
and Under Armour. The complete text of the discussion on ethical
business stewardship and cannabis challenges is available at both
the Mentor Capital and Management Today websites and at the link:
