A bit of taking one's self too seriously

Mattel recalled nearly a million toys in early August that were coated with lead paint. Zhang Shuhong, co-owner of the company that made the defective toys, committed suicide after the recall. :(

A bit over-the-top but here's a man that believed in taking responsibility.

The head of the Food group did the same thing after all the food recalls.

You really think so?? Its a Communist country with dismal human rights. Sound more like they needed a scape goat.
