- native_samples 5y agoThis is hardly the fault of global capitalism, given that China is a communist country, that western culture is also quite clear that corporations may not fight back against abuses of government power. We expect companies to kneel before our own governments, we cannot therefore be upset when they kneel for all governments.
- deltasixeight 5y agoCorporations kneel to short term profit. Thus they will kneel to anything if it means increasing short term profit. Any company that gets political, does so as a means of increasing or defending short term profits. It's how capitalism works. Corporations are just brainless cogs with the one task of increasing short term profits. Kodak is sort of in a tough situation here.
