Actually they do, but those sales people will make sure payoffs are part of the purchase, and even if you get fired for calling out the conflict of interests, it is usually harder for an honest employee to fight a multi-billion dollar company that has professional propaganda departments.

Maybe they should? Blind faith in brands only causes trouble imo.
Soon they will.
