Companies don't exist to promote a political agenda, they exist to make money for their shareholders.

Part of that is being good corporate citizens. Why do you think companies give to charity? Why do you think soda companies bottle water to give to people after disasters? Why do you think Starbucks helps small 3rd world coffee growers?

I agree, but with the realization that good PR is good for profits.
