We don't decide. We are coerced. When money is involved the CEOs decide and try to coerce us into their preferred decision.
Absolutely no idea why you're getting downvoted. CEOs browsing Lemmy?

If I had to guess, it is probably due to the natural resistance that people have towards the idea that they are being manipulated. Also some people have a hard-on for pleasing those that society preaches are better than them. Re: Musk fanboys
