All shareholder corporations, big and small, have to be concerned
about profits. It is their only reason for existence. Are you
proposing that manufacturing be done by government owned collectives?

PS, that has been tried elsewhere. It failed miserably.


No, I'm proposing that claiming "liberal"-owned corporations (as
though GE is somehow a liberal corp) are somehow worse than any other
corporation.

Actually, it's been tried here in the US, at least corps have been
heavily regulated, and it wasn't a failure, e.g., the airline industry
before the major deregulation.
