No matter how attractive it may be to pretend that business decisions exist in some sort of apolitical moral vacuum the simple fact of the matter is that the overwhelming majority of them do not. Making money is not an excuse for improving the surveillance efficiency of autocratic regimes, building gas chambers, or supporting an organization that engages in mass-scale detention of child refugees. I fully support the rights of employees to peacefully encourage their organizations to weigh the moral components of business decisions. It is obvious that, left to their own devices, large businesses will support slavery, genocide, and any number of horrors in the pursuit of profit - something has to restrain their behavior and it certainly isn't going to come from the C-level without serious pressure being applied. |
