I love the intent. I often have the sense that decisionmaking at big corporations manifests a well-functioning prefrontal cortex and no limbic system -- i.e., somewhere on the socipathy/psycopathy spectrum.
It's interesting to note that some of the most successful corporations have already moved in this direction on a voluntary basis. Regardless of whether or how this particular initiative is received by Congress and the Courts, any big corporation that wants to grow long-term will have to move in this direction. In that sense, this is not necessarily a competition-friendly proposal.
On the other hand, it's the whippersnappers that are growing fast by cutting corners that are likely to be hurt the worst. Personally, I prefer to live in a world of socially-responsible for-profit goliaths with Schumpeterian competition from startups over a world of free-for-all, dog-eat-dog competition in which bad values drive out the good.
Lots of things to like about this proposal.
