"What's the big deal? We do it all the time at work." Plagiarism is a big deal. I'm not always on the spot with ethical choices either. However, I do make a conscious effort to do the right thing. What is unacceptable are the folks claiming, with self-righteous indignance, that they are in the right to do whatever they want to do while looking down their noses at others calling them 'criminals' for seeking a better life. It is unconscionable to demand this party or that group are immoral while blatantly acting unethical with the property and hard work of others. Plagiarism is theft. Period. This may be a tough lesson with consequences for the thief. It is a necessary result for poor behavior.
