We pretty much agree there, particularly on the "people's government can prevent them from running roughshod" and there's my problem. This whole "remove all regulation" is an attempt to completely remove that aspect. As for morals and scruples and such, I agree that corporations do need to "give back" to their communities and that's actually in their own self-interest. But again, the modern mindset is that they shouldn't contribute to schools and the community as a whole even though that's tax deductable. Philosophically, I have a problem with draining the blood of the community and when it runs dry, just pulling up stakes and walking away. That's how it's been working since the 80's and just look at where we collectively are as a result.We've learned that when you take care of your employees and their families, they take MUCH better care of the corporation. But they apparently don't teach that in MBA school anymore. :( |
