Why ? Like everything else money, in the last 60 years or so, more people started chasing money at all costs, ignoring the impact on society.

Many aspect of modern society now does this, from churches to non-profits to politics to business. Just look at the salaries of the people running these organizations and how they have grown when compared to their employees.

Decades ago, at least these "CEOs" would attempt to think of society and employees before making decisions. Now it comes down to "how much can I get and screw everyone else".
