As someone famous once said, "Corporations are people, my friend."

But seriously, please stop with the "fiduciary responsibility to stockholders" crap, as if that's the only responsibility people have to each other.

Too many companies extract profit for themselves by imposing negative externalities on their employees, on taxpayers, and on the environment. We can't legislate all of this away, so there's a healthy role for shame, for protest, and for boycott.

By the way, it's possible to care for your employees AND make a profit. Costco treats their employees well and still makes a killing for their stockholders.
