I think the overall point should be that no way is clearly up -- it seems obvious that corporations shouldn't be forced to act unprofitably, but not only does that often reinforce systemic racism (in this case), you end up with e.g. insurers shouldn't have to cover preexisting conditions, felons should be permanently out of a job (and thus essentially forced back into crime), et cetera. Or should that be the government's role, and how do we reconcile that with the common wisdom that private enterprise is more efficient (or desirable)? These are complex, subtle issues. The most important thing is to distrust anyone telling you that the answer is "obvious", which so far is most of this HN thread.
