:: Pre Activity before Final Test ::

Is the individual consumer responsible? Should we rely on the consumer's common sense? What is common sense?

Yes, it is, but it isn’t their responsibility for 100%. We couldn’t rely on only consumer’s common sense, whereas consumer’s common sense is uncertain and rarely to measure what is the standard. Younger is an example, I don’t think that every younger have enough judgment to choose the right things. Even adult always make the wrong choices in their lives because of lack of knowledge.


Should the business involved be responsible for keeping the consumer safe? What is the goal of business in society?

Yes, they should be responsible to their consumers. They need to realize both their profit and consumers safe as the priority, because only the governing regulation might not be enough. In my opinion, any regulations always have vulnerable points, but if the responsibility comes from those businesses, the regulations are almost meaningless. Moreover, I believe that any businesses who think about their customers, finally they will gain a lot of supports back.
