A corporation has an ethical responsibility to all stakeholders, not just a fiduciary responsibility to stockholders.

For all the cultists regurgitating stupidity about capitalism and profits: Profits are simply income after wages and all other expenses. It is necessary to generate in EVERY economic system including communism. Where the hell to you think invested capital comes from? Trees?

To make corporations behave ethically, demand honest markets. If industries emit pollution, deplete resources or destroy wildlife habitat, show it in the price. (Charge hefty fees proportional to harm.) Make the policy fair by sharing fee proceeds to all. gaiabrain.blogspot.com

Why do you support the blank check approach for Ukraine, Don't you have an ethical responsibility to us

Yes but not a political one.

100% hideously wrong. Stakeholders is a Far Left dogwhistle for unelected people we like as opposed to our elected representatives. It’s used to impose the Far Left’s agenda that cannot be achieved at the polls. A corporation has the duty to follow the law, honor its contractual obligations to workers and debtors, make a safe product, advertise it ethically, and generate a return on investment to its its owners. That is a hell of a task. I like a company that does this and I can buy its toilet paper on a shelf. That company does not owe political donations or shakedowns to you and your extortionist pals.

To be clear fascism, communism and capitalism are the three economic systems rivaling on Earth. Communism failed, but in its place isn’t always capitalism but rather fascism which is a socialist ideological alternative to communism. In fascism, the Party defines the political interests of the nation, ownership and control of corporations and capital are transferred to Party members who are free to earn profits in service of Party-State interests. Xi’s counter revolution against Deng’s post-Mao liberalism was to transition the Chinese Communist Party into a fascist regime. The goal of the neoliberal globalists is fascism. Tony Blaire and Bill Clinton were the modern innovators of fascist neoliberalism, which promises the largest corporations on Earth all the protections of the State if they swear loyalty to the Party. The neocons are the same thing on the right but their political project failed into basically a controlled opposition.

Marianne Williamson's 2 biggest advocates have a convo 6 MONTHS AGO about Marianne W being the Progressive Challenger BJG - Any Progressive Who Announced a Presidential Run WILL NOT GET FULL-THROATED BACKING from the American Left, the way that Bernie did. Looking at Marianne, part of the old Bernie coalition would NOT LIKE her Foreign Policy "she's obviously so superior to Biden, that I can OVERLOOK a number of things" @krystalball @briebriejoy @marwilliamson #DontDonateToMarianneWilliamson
