<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WingedLiberty, post: 1227262, member: 26030&quot;]This made me laugh!&nbsp; Actually it&#039;s purely based on observation.&nbsp; Did you ever hear of Enron, Worldcom, AIG, Goldman Sachs.&nbsp; How about the cigarette companies that spike cigarettes to make them more addictive and cover up health risks.&nbsp; How about the Gulf Oil spill (the profit motive is what caused them to rush and not take proper safety precautions -- do you think BP actually cares about the people that live on the gulf coast?).&nbsp; There are just too many examples to list.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Are there ethical companies out there?&nbsp;&nbsp; Probably.&nbsp;&nbsp; But i have just seen too many examples of greed over ethics to think that most corporations are the friend of the public or have the good of the public in mind when they make decisions.</p><p><br /></p><p>The mandate for corporations is to maximize profits for shareholders, not to save the dolphins or be a public benefactor.&nbsp; There usually has to be laws or regulations passed to keep corporations in line.&nbsp; They don&#039;t seem to have a moral compass when left to their own devices.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
