Revisiting the Pinto Fire Case

Revisiting the Pinto Fire Case Questions

1) How do you feel about the use of cost/benefit analysis where human life is part of the

calculation? Why?

2) Given that automobiles have inherent dangers, where do you draw the line on product safety?

3) Answer Gioia’s question: Is a person behaving unethical if the situation was not even

construed in ethical terms?

4) Is everyone a victim of their cognitive structures? Think about Gioia’s actions in the Pinto Fries Case. If so, what can be done?

Such a paper, by the nature of the detail and elaboration included, would be at least 3 pages (single spaced, 12-point font, 1 in margins, not including title page or reference page). At least 6 references total. No WIKI or encyclopedia. Please note: Different references means different sources, which may or may not be from different authors but will be from different articles, books, etc. Direct quoting a source is not what I am looking for, it is better to paraphrase and integrate into what you are saying, which shows you understood the source and how it relates to the point you are trying to make
