You think you're taking a side, but really you are taking the corporations side: By saying organizations and the people who run them have no morals, you've lowered the requirements and norms of organizations and humanity.

It turns out people have morals - it's an intrinsic part of humanity, especially as social beings - and they can choose them and act on them, and they are responsible for doing so in any society. Somehow, you just let them off the hook.



Individuals may have morals.

Corporations have none. They only care about profits.

That's why I support strong government regulation to rein in how corporations behave.

I am not taking the side of corporations here. You are by believing in the fairy tale of "company values".
