When it comes to taking care of clients through agencies such as social services, a worker can learn a great deal about that client by seeing where he or she lives. That is not just about the person's house, but also about the neighborhood and community. The way the neighborhood looks often gives a lot of insight into the income of the client and his or her neighbors, as well as possibly showcasing what that client may find important.

The antitrust case brought by Wal-Mart and other retailers against Visa and MasterCard in the U.S. Eastern District court, was settled in 2003 for $3 billion and primarily involved a dispute concerning the efficient pricing of access to payment information, including security data that confirmed or refuted the transactional identities of cardholders. In their pleadings, Wal-Mart and other class action litigants argued that third-party providers such as Visa and MasterCard required them to accept both debit and credit cards issued by MasterCard but the interchange fees were higher for debit cards. In sum, the suit filed by Wal-Mart and other large retailers claimed that Visa and MasterCard required all merchants who accept their credit cards to also accept their signature debit cards [which] constitutes an illegal tie-in in violation of antitrust law. In their responsive pleadings, the defendants maintained that the plaintiffs' argument failed to satisfy the definition of tying because their so-called "honor-all-cards agreement" with merchants did not preclude them from steering their customers toward PIN-based debit transactions with their concomitant lower merchant fees. In reality, though, the case focused on the fundamental right of the class action litigants to timely and accurate research information, an issue that forms the basis of this project.

This paper proposes an ethical system that is based on doing good by society's standards. The system can apply to all societies independent of religion.
