It will also make people with these morals if there aren’t any. We see both of these phenomena. If on the other hand we point at the system and say this is what creates this problem, and if we change it, it’ll stop selecting and creating psychopaths. I think.
I think we should be unsurprised not because of who they are but because of the fact these corporations have the fiduciary duty to do this.

Fiduciary duty does not require lying or the commission of crimes.
