Yep, it's a publicly traded company whose duty is to make a profit. It's why DEI is dying off as well.

Also why life on earth is dying off as well...

Companies don't have feelings

Regulations are the way to fix things, just asking companies or their CEOs to be nice doesn't work

The ideal company perfectly maximizes profit, we just should work towards implementing for example 4 day work weeks, higher minimum wage and other great things using regulations

Effectively we should have an ever evolving cat and mouse game where regulations for companies keep getting stricter and stricter to improve the lives of the many because who would have guessed that weekends for example didn't completely destroy the world like company spokepeople said

Just saying, no one is upset sharks aren't turning vegan. Why anyone would be upset corporations aren't willingly doing a unprofitable thing would be the same thing.
