The Ten Commandments Adapted to Modern Business Practice

The Biblical commandments are far too old-fashioned. Here is the MODERN Business Version of the classical Decalogue:

MONEY is your God, which is used to keep poor people in slavery;

Do not have any other gods besides MONEY.

You shall not make for yourself any moral principles, but shall rape the planet destroying everything you can that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

You shall not accept them or uphold them; Otherwise, you may find yourself getting soft.

You shall not make constructive use of MONEY your God, for the banks will not acquit anyone who uses MONEY for constructive puposes.

Work your employees 8 days a week, 30 hours a day, or as close to that as possible. Don't give them time off forer the Sabbath day.

Dishonor your father and your mother, so that your time, effort and MONEY is not wasted on those old crocks.

You shall not kill without a good profit incentive.

You shall commit adultery whenever you feel horny.

You shall steal as much as you can, always calling it "Executive Compensation".

You shall bear false witness against anybody who is a legal threat.

You shall covet your neighbor’s house; you shall covet your neighbor’s wife, his house, his care, and everything else worth having that belongs to your neighbor.
