Personal Responsibility
To understand a
corporation you must first look the people running the business.
For some reason we don’t hold corporation accountable for the
suffer, death, and destruction they cause. In the end the only thing
they do is a pay a fine and continue on doing whatever they can do to
make a profit.
If a person were to kill
another then that said person would go to jail. When a corporation
kills or harms workers they pay a fine. A corporation is defined as a
living thing. It is not person or even livining. Four walls is all a
corporation will ever be. We allow for people to willing hurt each
other everyday, and we stay silent or we just don’t care enough to
know. The world is a sad place for anyone not growing with wealth.
Money is the only thing to work for, to want. All needs can be
satisfied by the more money we make. Greed is blessing and curse.
Greed can get you up to go work but it also can make you screw over
your neighbor to get a few bucks. But as individuals if we do “bad”
things we will be held accountable for our actions. If a cooperation
is a person, then they should be held accountable to the same extent
that a regular person would. The share holder are what make up this
person. Every CEO in history will tell you the share holder are all
that matter. Make the share holder happy and you to keep your job. If
the CEO only acts in the interest of the share holders then the share
holders should be help accountable for the actions of the CEO. IF a
CEO willing is producing a product with a default. Investing is only
about the return. “How much can this company make me.” You
shouldn’t have reward without risk, you can lose money when
investing. But money isn’t life, its not living.
When you invest in
a company, you become apart of that company. The good the bad and
ugly, your apart of it all. Share holders should care and if they
don’t then make them. When you invest you don’t check factories
or working conditions or even think about the everyday workers. There
no human contact, its just money to be made. For people to care there
life must be directly affected by their actions. When people aren’t
held accountable of course there going to do things for their own
good. If telling me I can create a car that explodes and all I have
to do after is pay fine and ill still make millions. Ill make the
car, what do I care im not driving it. People only care when their
way of life is at jeopardy. If an individual persons actions can
land them in prison, then a corporation which is a person should also
abide by the same laws as everyone else. Share holder are what make
up this person, you can fire CEO's, workers, but there not the
people in charge. If investing is all about the money and we forget
about the people then how can we consider ourselves civilized. We
don’t learn from our history the only purpose it serves is to
document what has happened. We are constantly making the same
mistakes, we are constantly costing people lives. Would you want to
live you life with a birth defect caused by illegal dumping? Until
the corporations share holders are held accountable for their
actions, it will always be about the bottom line. Money. And if value
money over human life, then the future is already lost.
