All indications are that public trust in business and in government, both generally low, is in crisis. This is not surprising, given the collapse of the U.S. housing market and the subsequent global financial crisis which led to unprecedented levels of public money being used to support financial institutions and automakers.  Ethically Speaking: Testing your child's DNA WYCC TV-IL, August 9, 2009   In this episode, our panelists explore the emerging questions in children's health care as scientists make progress in mapping the human genome.
