companies are completely the void of morality their only purpose is profit

Companies are groups of people and have many different purposes. I understand being worried about the rise in corporate oligarchy, but your argument is itself the attitude you are accusing companies of. The problem isn't companies being immoral, but people rationalising behaviour that they know to be immoral.

That's probably because i treat them the same way they treat me.

Their attitude makes sense and sometimes it's actually necessary for a companies/entities survival.

We all face hard choices between what's moral and what's best for our own survival the only difference is companies put any amount of small profit over morality not just survival.

I don't make the rules i just play the game.
