>A private company's obligation is to shareholder value, not peoples feelings about themselves.  I used to believe that. (insert clip of Molymeme doing his standard *"corporations are legally required to avoid waste and maximize profit."* rant here) But when I saw Intel give $300 million to retarded feminists I just couldn't pretend anymore.   A private company's obligation is to the shareholder's *agenda*, but that doesn't necessarily mean value or profit. Spoiler: The shareholders are giant banks and their agenda is globalism.  >Only the CBC can get away with ignoring economics.  The whole financial system gets away with ignoring economics. Look at Twitter's numbers or our dudeweedstock bubble; global 'markets' are a debt-fueled farce. The cherry on top is millions of people wasting time and energy by solving meaningless math problems with rigs full of overpriced video cards because somehow that's going to "stahp teh central banksters."
