Every single company & government still doing business with is an example of the mindset.
The idea that greed is a virtue is destroying the world, literally

8 dump trucks sat idling on North Road all day yesterday, burning oil en masse while destructively digging a dirty oil pipeline through a previously protected area.

The & are actively committed to as they openly pollute our neighbourhoods, threaten to arrest us with permanent legal signage & regularly disrupt local traffic.

is a dirty oil country. Humanity deserves all the havoc will reek on us.

Big Oil on course for near-record $38bn in share buybacks

Seven majors set for supercharged stock purchasing on top of estimated $50bn of dividends.

Money to shareholders not consumers not investing in clean energy. So your prices will remain high. Tough .

Been rereading "In Cold Blood" by Truman Capote. This is a novelization into a mass murder.

He interviewed many people for it and quotes them in places. One of them is the insurance agent that sold Mr Clutter an insurance policy just a few hours before he was murdered.

In this quote the insurance agent and his manager discuss if they will honor the policy. He states "Naturally, we decided to do the moral thing"

I cannot imagine a modern company doing that.

?: do customers whose credit scores dropped get corrected? Are their accts going 2 see the return of $? If they claimed bankruptcy, died from related probs, divorced, or leaned too hard on negative coping, are they compensated? If lost everything, do they get it back? Why does stay in business at all? No excuses/privileges bestowed to clients. Is the money enough?

Der Tagebau wächst seit 35 Jahren stetig, den jüngsten Daten zufolge werden dort 108.000 Tonnen Steinkohle pro Tag gefördert. Im Schnitt 30 Mio l H2O /d verbraucht, und das in einem Halbwüstengebiet. Für die Unternehmen, bedeutet er beträchtliche Gewinne. Dabei haben sie immer den Schutz der kolumbianischen Regierung genossen, außerdem konnten sie auf Korruption und den Paramilitarismus zählen. Und das alles zum ständigen Nachteil der Wayuu
