- whatshisface 7y agoEthically aligned capitalism is just regular capitalism with ethically aligned people, no different from the ethically aligned version of any other society.
- 4werfaw34r 7y agoNo. Companies believe their only duty is to protect shareholder value, so that's what drives their decision making, not ethics. As long as we have that problem, it won't matter how many ethical people we have in our society. As of right now, we have plenty of people who want to do the right thing, but can't because they'll lose their jobs.
