Stuff about corporations have come up a lot this election. Corporate interests, corporate welfare, raising (or rather, not) raising the minimum wage, corporate influence on politicians, etc. One particularly horrible individual even said that companies are people.
But I do have to wonder. The way some corporations behave. Treat their employees like slaves, pollute, embezzle, even try to cover up human experimentation and murder...
What the hell is up with that? If they were people, well, we'd execute them for crimes against humanity.
I mean, granted, this is nothing new. From the Robber Barons to industrialists who enabled Nazi Germany (whose companies are still around, and doing great), corporations have always done dubious things.
Now not all corporations are evil. It's a short list, but there are some that go out of their way to have good policies for their employees.
But I just have to wonder, are the people running these things evil? Is it just deliberate malevolence?
I would just love to talk to the CEO of a fast food chain, and ask.
