They never seem to have an issue with it when they’re the ones doing it.

Corporations are all led by narcissistic sociopaths because you need to be completely devoid of any personal values to behave the way they do. 

Every accusation is a confession.

And the shareholders all look the other way because they are making money from these monsters. 

If you are holding Tesla, Walmart, Apple, or Amazon stock in your portfolios, you are all part of the problem. 

Move your money to renewable energy and municipal bonds. May be less return, but at least you are not a participant in the destruction of our society and our planet.
