If you're a citizen of the United States, you are innocent until proven guilty. Do we extend that assumption to our government or big corporations? Is it ethical and moral to extend that assumption? No, it's not. In fact, for big entities who have much power over you, when there's a big power in balance, like the government versus a citizen, they are definitely guilty until proven innocent. But start with citizens, innocent, big entities, guilty. That's your starting assumption. To be a wise, good citizen in the republic.
