Their responsibility to "the taxpayer" is a few orders of magnitude less acute than their responsibility to the owners of the company they've been hired to manage.
- burkaman 5y agoI completely disagree, but I don't really know how to debate such a fundamental thing. It's such a weird philosophy to put your job over your society. I understand it's common, but it's weird. You can find a new job, but you can't find a new planet.
- rattray 5y agoI just don't want to leave climate change up to the whims of strangers. If you're in business, you compete with people who put their jobs before society, so you don't really have much choice. Call that a race to the bottom if you want, but it's a race – and races need rules.
