I know what you mean. I charged them with greed and avarice, and they screamed “Free enterprise! Capitaism! We’re in business to make a profit!”, at me. While I believe in those three things, “what profits it a man, if he gain the world, and lose his soul?”

Amen!!

Stock options drove many insane.

And I dont know if it benefits a company because those people will lie, cheat and steal to get that price up.

I dunno.

Seems like in the ‘50s, though i was born in ‘68, but from what i was told, it was a different story.

I agree with that, and you don’t have to go off the deep end Socialist to grasp it.

I’m all for owners making as much profit as they can, but I don’t want that done by screwing your workers who have a family to support.

At then end of the day, I’d like to know my savings wasn’t tainted by causing financial problems in the households of my employees.

Each business is a bit different. If the boss insn’t making much money, employees have to be understanding too. Keeping the business open so they have jobs is an important goal.

I laugh when I see the fast food places having to raise their wages. You know darn well they’ll eliminate positions to meet the legal requirements.
