I don’t trust either of them as far as I can throw them, and you shouldn’t trust them either. Businesses’ singular pursuit of short-term profits over the past

I don’t trust either of them as far as I can throw them, and you shouldn’t trust them either. Businesses’ singular pursuit of short-term profits over the past four decades has kept wages down, utterly destroyed the environment, and eroded the global working-class. It is thus now difficult to trust the same corporations to “do the right thing” or “lead us to a better tomorrow.” Fool me once… Finding more or less trust in the newfound altruism of the very same companies at the heart of the system that created or supported all these negative externalities suddenly espousing new and reformed values is rich. I can’t believe anybody actually trusts them after looking at the state of the world they created. I grant the argument that you might trust one more than the other, relative to one another, but one thing the past century should have taught all of us is that we shouldn’t lend our trust to profit-seeking private companies as they aren’t incentivized to “do the right thing” generally. I’m all for collective efforts and even companies changing the world for the better. I just don’t think the current crop will suddenly reform with Aquarian awareness and become model benevolent entities suddenly worthy of extending our personal trust. Maybe after 4 decades of good behavior…
