Greedy capitalists don't sacrifice their capitalism, they sacrifice their company's long-term capital and move on to the next company.

If you don't see evidence you might need to widen your media bubble, just an idea....

Maybe they aren't greedy after all? People live long. If a CEO ruinw a company with short term mismanagement, they do ruin their reputation. It's not like politicians who are often elected just once and only for a few years.

Ruining a company does not necessarily mean they failed the goals placed in front of them, especially in a cult of "shareholder value maximization" that makes people think it's a fiduciary duty to take shareholder value as primary goal.

Multiplying shareholder capital through short-term dismantling of existing businesses while ensuring the shareholder do not have negative effects from it is very much a rewarded operation.

But the shareholder value goes down if you have quality and safety issues? Boeing stock did go down.

But before that, you can squeeze so much shareholder value and be rewarded by the people setting the goals (shareholders choosing the board)

[cubefox]

Again, a CEO with a long-term career wouldn't want to do that.

Boy you need to at least open up to Fox Business xD

CEOs are required to maximize shareholder's value, and only some rare funds need the value to stay high for long.

The way to have a short CEO career is to let moral concerns interfere with shareholders' returns.
