Yes it would. I follow the moral not the rich.

Literally nobody would be left. This is big issue with our cultural moment right now. In the past, it was understood that all humans are fallible and worthy of forgiveness. The standards seem to be so unrealistic right now that it is making everyone miserable. This is not to say there should not be accountability. But there should also be proportionality and second chances.

If every C-level in the world is morally suspect, we have a bigger problem. Seriously, is your claim that being a bit iffy is a pre-requisite for the job? That's a pretty damning statement about capitalism if that's the claim.

In my experience it is much more accurate to not see the world in terms of good and bad people, but to accept that each of us have the capacity for good and bad in ourselves. To quote Solzhenitsyn: the line between good and bad goes through the heart of every person.
This world view is not only more accurate, but also more forgiving, and and overall leads to a less angry world view.

This is not at all true; our standards are extremely low for moral behaviour from public figures, and they traditionally face minor or no consequences for even severely unethical or actively criminal behaviour.
You can't say we need to preach forgiveness rather than consequences when no consequences are happening at all; it reads as insincere, and is at best inaccurate.

Who's morals exactly? There's a big difference between following the morals of a traditional religion and following the morals of some retards you happen to align with because of your pre-existing lived experiences. If it's the later—which it is, unless it's the former—then you haven't really become moral in any sense unless you're a Nietzchian.
