It's just greed. Companies exist to create profit for their shareholders, any social value they produce in the process is strictly incidental.
That's not "greed". It's capitalism.
Sure, capitalism is a system that rewards greed and egoism ensuring that psychopaths rise to the top of the society.
Yawn.
Or do you think such people don't rise to the top in socialist systems?
Yeah, I think people who rise to the top are products of selection pressures they're exposed to, and capitalism selects for the entirely wrong things. You're just another victim of capitalist realism bud.
You said greed twice. Or you said capitalism twice.
