It the end, it is the responsibility of the shareholders and purchasers to keep excess in check, not government.

I never said anything about the govt.

As for the shareholders they get voted down all the time. The CEO's give their shares more votes per share than regular stockholders. As always, they get the upper hand.

You didn’t specifically ‘say’ government, but what is the point charging that business upper echelons are the problem with factory shutdowns and not tacitly implying that government has to do something about it?

There may be that sort of thing going on, but I don’t think it is pervasive.

Regardless, I do not subscribe to the position that business as an entity is bad and the root of our problems. That can be better traced to oppressive government in my opinion.
