If one does not feel that people are important, it allows one to not feel responsible for society.
It's not acidic, it's REALITY.
Why is that so hard for people to accept? Let's say you own Tashah's Manufacturing. Now, you had to get money to start this Co. Those people are called investor's. They now have entrusted you with their money not out of CHARITY but because they expect a profit. If you don't provide that, they'll cut their losses and you'll go out of business.
So, ten years go by, you've grown into a big company with multiple factories in many places. Life is good! But there is some economic turmoil, maybe a big contract you had went under, you got out bid for another. Profits are falling, investors are getting worried, the board fears big losses...
You are faced with laying off 10% of your workforce maybe closing a plant...
Or losing the company.
Now, who is expendable? The workers. Welcome to reality Tashah. I'm not cold hearted, I just don't DENY THE TRUTH.
I think that explains my point, and why you... are so wrong in your commentary.
