At whose expense? 2. To whose advantage? 3. By sacrificing what of values and ideals? 4. At the expense of what kinds of balance? 5. With what shifts in power? 6. Will honesty be sacrificed? 7. Will personal integrity be sacrificed? 8. Will communal integrity be sacrificed? 9. Will environmental integrity be sacrificed? 10. Will cost be assessed against future generations? If questions such as those above are ignored, obscured, confused, repressed, and/or answered in disintegrative ways --- we should be aware of and beware of the trend away from harmony, cooperation, unity and peace.
