You mean people? Companies are ran by people, people want to get rich, people are the problem.
The only change I see working is to hold accountable not just the companies themselves but the decision makers too.
- sudosysgen 6y agoCompanies are not people and are not run by people, they have specific legal requirements and power structures that mean that the operate very differently from how most people that compose them want them to. In any case, how people act is largely a consequence of their environment, i-e, the system. These can be environmental, political (as in, power relations), cultural, etc...
- ta17711771 6y ago> specific legal requirements Stop leaning on this, because it's not true, just a cop-out. Individual corporate humanism isn't a crime.
- sudosysgen 6y agoCorporate humanism isn't always a crime. Sometimes it is. But even when it isn't, it is a sub-optimal strategy compared to maximizing as long as those that make the decisions have differing interests than those that bear them. And if they do not have differing interests, then why separate them?
- tracker1 6y agoAnd what's the solution? Do you propose killing everyone that worked for the companies in question during WWII? What about those not in Germany or occupied terretories? Since most of those people are long since dead, do you propose killing their children and grandchildren? Anything done today for crimes 80 years ago will only serve to hurt those that weren't even around, and not really help those that were harmed.
