Aqua-Wave Aquariums (AWA) Ben, Jeremiah, and Stacey, Senior Executives at AWA, Are Discussing

Aqua-Wave Aquariums (AWA)
Ben, Jeremiah, and Stacey, senior executives at AWA, are discussing the recent complaint by a consumer protection agency that a particular aquarium model is prone to leaks. Ben argues that the company's only responsibility is to maximize profits (within legal and market parameters, of course) , so AWA should simply deny any responsibility and resist change. Jeremiah argues that AWA should put up a legal fight and use a public relations campaign to avoid assuming additional responsibilities. Stacey can't accept either argument. She favors taking the initiative and establishing a positive role model for the aquarium industry. Stacey argues that AWA's actions should result in greater good than harm for the society of which they are a part.
