This more sounds like a trap mindset to me to be honest. Its associating some sort of morality to what is just regular part of running a business. Companies do what's best for the company and its investors first and foremost.

- bhargav 3y agoI don’t understand the point you’re trying to make. Are you suggesting that all corporations actions are based on morality? I was pointing out that’s not the case.
- drewbug01 3y ago> Are you suggesting that all corporations actions are based on morality? I believe the suggestion is that they certainly should be based in some moral system. Corporations are a convenient fiction we use to shield the actual humans from the effects of the actions they collectively take.
