Oh great, my electricity comes from Duke Energy. In Indiana, it’s almost all generated from coal.. What is it with these high paid execs that turns their brians to mush?
I thought that was clearly obvious: the exact same thing that struck the tobacco companies!
Why should they care how much taxes on their product or service rises if all they need to do is collect it for the government, if their profits remain the same or increase?
It's not rocket science.
They come from a corporate political environment that is politically correct in every way, and that translates into "go along to get along".
Their MBAs (Master Bulls**t Artist) degrees teach them this is the way to manage.
