<p>When I came into ethical investing I knew people would have different ethics. But if there was one company I thought thought we could agree on, it was <strong>Cochlear Limited</strong> (ASX: COH), a company builds hearing aids as well as generating good profits for shareholders.</p> <p>But since <em><a href="https://osuut654u0.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Its-not-THAT-difficult2.png">The Intelligent Investor</a></em> argues Cochlear might be unethical, I thought I'd post a video of a kid getting hearing from a hearing aid. I wonder if people at Cochlear sit around thinking, "let's build less hearing aids, and put the price up." Somehow, I doubt it, but if you work at Cochlear, please let me know!</p> <p></p> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUP02yTKWWo">Watch a seven week old get his first hearing aid, here.</a></p> <p><br/>(and props to the person running the Australian Ethical Investments facebook page – disclosure, I hold shares in Australian Ethical)</p> <p></p>
