How to use "Un-ethical" in context?
behavior
As unethical behavior becomes increasingly un-ethical, people begin to question what is and is not ethical. Companies that engage in unethical behavior may be fined, caught in a scandal, or slammed by their customers. But what constitutes ethical behavior and how do we know when we are crossing the line?
