but work incredibly hard?

What Would You Do?
Liquid detergent packages are the fastest growing part of the $2 billion detergent
market, of which Procter & Gamble controls 80%. Unfortunately, small children and
the elderly often confuse the small multicolored Tide Pod packages with candy.
After introducing Tide Pods, the number of detergent-related emergency room visits
for children tripled, while the number of detergent-related poison control center
calls for children rose by a factor of 2.5. A total of ten people have died from eating
Tide Pods.
If you were the CEO of Procter & Gamble, what would you do?
