How about you stop buying VW cars if you disagree with what the company did (let the market do its work)?
- SwellJoe 10y agoPerhaps re-read my comment. I was not advocating a "free market" solution to this particular problem, I was pointing out that were this a market failure instead of an ethical failure, no one would be arguing VW needs to continue to exist because "jobs". We do not have a perfectly "free market" (and that's OK), though markets are nice things, and in some cases I am in agreement with wanting more free markets. But, do you sincerely believe the right answer to a company killing people is a boycott?
