Great. We start a lot of companies while the lives of people in and also around those companies are destroyed by them. I don't understand this fetish for businesses that mostly destroy people's lives while not even providing a living wage in most cases. That's not something to brag about; that's something to be ashamed about as a society and a culture. It's not just the employees, but everyone's lives that are affected. We let these businesses pollute and get away with murder and when we try to change them, we can't because we let them write our laws and buy our politicians. In most places lobbying is called bribing and corruption. It still happens but at least it's not legal. If you think starting companies is the epitome of what a society can do, that's a sad state of affairs and a shortsighted view of the effects. But I bet you think you'll be the CEO and what happens to everyone else doesn't matter because you'll have a cushy life. Exactly the typical American viewpoint this article decries. Just a bunch of embarrassed millionaires (or should it be billionaires now?) indeed.
