The purpose of a company is to make a profit for its owners, PERIOD.

Workers are privileged to have a job, its NEVER a right.

(But I guess it’s OK when the NYT lays off their employees)

“The purpose of a company is to make a profit for its owners, PERIOD.”

(I’m not defending the article’s position.)

To state that “The purpose of a company is to make a profit for its owners, PERIOD.” is pretty much a wholesale rejection of the protestant work ethic which is the very foundation of the free market.

If there is no greater good served than “making a profit” then them marketplace will eventually descend into a orgy of thievery.
