The cynicism required for that quote to work as intended doesn't really carry over to stuck keys...
I also like to point out that the quote may have ended up supporting the behavior it criticises instead of limiting it. By spreading the idea that such behavior is actually common, it may have legitimized it.
I have no evidence to support this, but I refuse to believe such behavior, especially in the explicit form alleged by Fight Club, is anything but rare. "Corporations are people" (my friend) also implies that people make all those decisions, and individual morality does play a role.
I do have personally witnessed several instances where employees have insisted on moral behavior even when it was detrimental to the bottom line.
