    I'm sorry but this just doesn't fly.  If someone is conducting
    business in an unethical manner than it is unethical period. Using
    your thinking you could say that someone who was raised in a family
    of thieves is justified in stealing from someone because that is how
    they were raised, or that because a child had a father who was a
    murderer than he has the right to murder too because that was how he
    was raised. In many countries bribery is routine. That doesn't make
    it right. It is up to all of us, who are ethical, to ensure that only
    ethical dealers thrive by buying from them and not from unethical
    ones.
