    Right-wing libertarians believe in the freedom to restrict the others’ freedom, and fiercely oppose the oppression of not being allowed to oppress. Couple that with the interests of money hoarders and here you go. Not really rocket science, innit.

    Any business that has an investor, will naturally become profit-first because that is the only role of the investor - to grow their investment returns.

    Profit-first naturally leads to a hierarchy - on top, the bosses & investors who seek the profit, below them, the entire ecosystem of customers, employees, & vendors from which that said profit will be derived.

    Profit-first is short-sighted and self-consuming - as it needs to extract more from that ecosystem, quarter after quarter, threatening the very ecosystem that the business was built on, like a slow axe to your own foot.

    They don’t teach you that in business school.
