The evolutionary path of the corporate politician.
And nobody permitted to climb to any 'higher level', within the 
organisation, until the ethical base of the individual has been 
appropriately compromised.

History is full of examples of nations attempting to change nations, 
families attempting to change families, and individuals attempting to 
bring about change in individuals, when the only way change can be 
brought about in the external environment, is by way of change within 
the individual.

What happens when the individual no longer exists?

Because, in the future, existence without the organisation is going to 
become increasingly difficult.
The 'organisation' is extending its boundaries to match nationalistic 
ones, and the new ethic will be taught from birth.
