a need for public truth-telling August 14, 2009

Posted by Bradley in : ethics , comments closed This week I am very troubled by the willingness of public figures to mislead the public about facts (I suppose I should be used to this by now, but I'm not). The debate about health care here in the US isn't focusing on how to achieve the best care for most people at the lowest cost, but on telling lies about what the government's proposals involve. It's bad enough when journalists tell lies (for example the IBD editorial which argued that Stephen Hawking wouldn't be alive today if he had had to rely on the UK's NHS). Although given that journalists claim to be subject to ethical standards, perhaps it is that bad. The IBD's follow-up to that story provides selected information suggesting that the UK health system is worse than that in the US, referring to OECD data. But the story doesn't say that, although the US spends more than the UK on healthcare, life expectancy in the US is 78.1 years, almost one year below the OECD average of 79.0 years, whereas in the UK life expectancy was just above the OECD average. In the US, infant mortality was at 6.7 deaths per 1 000 live births in 2006 (higher than the OECD average) whereas the UK was at 4.8 deaths per 1 000 live births in 2007. But it's not just about health care, and it's not just in the US. The UK Food Standards Agency's statements about the conclusions of a review of organic foods (that "there is little, if any, nutritional difference between organic and conventionally produced food") seem to be another example. And discussions of the financial crisis also involve manipulations of the facts. For example, Sheila Bair is reported as saying that "the ability to choose between federal and state regulatory regimes played no significant role in the current crisis. But the OCC's efforts to pre-empt state control of predatory lending was surely a factor in the generation of unsustainable mortgage loans which were used to back securities which turned out to be less reliable than their ratings would have predicted, undermining confidence in asset-backed securities generally and banks' willingness to lend to other banks. Of all of these manipulations, those which involve government agencies seem to me to be the most troubling.

uphill struggle for lecce framework June 16, 2009

Posted by Bradley in : ethics , comments closed The G8 finance ministers agreed the other day that:
For the market economy to generate sustained prosperity, fundamental norms of propriety, integrity and transparency in economic interactions must be respected.
But there's regular evidence that this is an uphill struggle. Today the FSA announced the appearance in court of two lawyers charged with insider trading. Lawyers should surely know better (especially after O'Hagan) although they don't seem to - insider trading is a pretty obvious breach of the law, and of propriety too.
