It’s perfectly evil system as nobody has to take moral accountability. The board has to make the best decisions for the shareholders and the shareholders don’t run the company, just invest in it. It’s what my mind goes to when oil companies claim that they are doing their part for climate change.
Well, you almost see the issue. Its the government that was supposed to take moral accountability. It was supposed to set minimum wages, environmental standards and other rules under which corpos cude try to increase profits.
But oil companies figured out they can distract people by pitting them against each other or by making them “protest the companies” and “vote with their wallets”, which never had any chance of doing anything. And then most companies followed suit.
