When did we move to a "do whatever you think you can get away with" model of society?

Maybe I'm naive but I think there used to be at least a modicum of self-restraint on this kind of thing. Sure, people always tried to make as much money as possible, but there used to be some limit somewhere - not because you'll get caught but because c'mon, we just don't do that! That seems to have now been totally lost.

Are you kidding? It used to be common knowledge that virtually every used car dealer was committing some sort of odometer or other fraud just 25-30 years ago. The advent of anti-tampering devices in cars, manufacturer certified pre-owned, carfax, listing of odometer values on registrations and insurance forms, and hefty fines (and even prison) for dealer fraud cut down on that.
