Speak for yourself. I do expect publicly-owned corporations to be decent, otherwise they do not deserve to be publicly owned. Unfortunately, it seems money gets in the way of that every day.
- notepad0x90 2y agopublicly owned typically means owned by wealthy investors. it is silly to expect people who hoard billions of dollars they can't ever use to be decent people, although I'm sure there are exceptions. But even if I am wrong, the purpose of a business is to make profit at all costs, people tend to compartmentalize their morally conformant selves so that they can give to charity or say nice things when they are not their work-self, and be all about business when they turn on their work mode.
