For businesses, which aim to make money, isnt that simply competence? Or greed when taken to an extreme.
Basically “companies will act in their best interest.”
- malux85 3y agoNo, that's too reductive - the behaviour is not solely explained by a unidimensional scalar like competence because there are actions that a greedy unethical competent company would take that another non-greedy ethical company would not take - so theres more dimensions than just competence.
