The law requires the board and the top executives of any corporation to behave like sociopaths with regard to the business. They have a legal responsibility to their shareholders to maximize profits. That supersedes any responsibilities to their employees, their customers, or the general public.
In 1916 Henry Ford reduced Ford's dividend payments to shareholders so he could increase the salaries of his employees. Some shareholders successfully sued him for it and won. He was forced to eliminate the raises and pay the higher dividends.
And we have been stuck with the inhumane results of that court decision ever since. Corporations aren't bad by accident. They are bad by design. They are legally required to be bad. It isn't surprising that the people who are often the most successful at making sociopathic decisions are themselves sociopaths.
Fledditors are all over the map in terms of interests, temperaments, and manners. I think the majority of us are trying to fit it and contribute, but even that can be disruptive when there are this many newcomers. I deeply appreciate how patient and friendly the folks who were already here have been toward this sudden invasion.
