If you emphasize and publicize “ethical economics”, bad phenomena centering
more on economic-benefits and less on ethics can be adjusted for positive/wholesome
change. “Right Livelihood/Employment” can be found in the “Eightfold Path” –
demanding people to engage in just/wholesome professions, confining one’s behavior
to ethical-moral pursuits leading to one’s own benefit. Harming another’s benefit or
chance is called: “akusala-karma” (evil activity) – the “cause” of future poverty. One
should strictly recollect to accept money earned righteously, and not to accept money
earned unwholesomely - not to strive for staggering profits by unjust approaches, and
not to do business unlawfully from exploiting economic-ventures. Therefore, Buddhist
ethical-economics is a fundamental guarantee towards legally managing modern
corporations, taking justice and legality, seriously, as preconditions; this encourages and
leads people to abide in commercial-transactions morally, maintaining the national
economic code. This is “legal” ethical economics, developed from Buddhism.
