Q: How do you know when a trillion-dollar corporation is evil?
A: When it‘s a trillion-dollar corporation.
@aral
A person writes a book. Its a hit! It brings joy and happiness to millions. They freely give him money for his book abd he becomes a millionaire.
He adapts it to movie and brings even more joy and happiness to humanity. As a by product he becomes a multi millionaire.
He creates a corporation to manage parks and rides, and people just can't get enough.
His company is worth trillions.
At what point those this person become evil?
@kpeace At the point where he decides to accumulate all that wealth instead of sharing it with his editor, the cast and crew of the movie, the people who built and work at his team parks, and with his community and the world at large. You don’t become a billionaire by bringing joy to people, you become a billionaire by allowing yourself to benefit the most from an unfair and unjust system. If he’d set up a cooperative and paid taxes like everyone else he wouldn’t be a billionaire.
@aral
The person who sold his book, movies and rides did it at a market price. He sold it at a price that other people thought was one that they will gain value by paying it.
I don't see why this billionaire should pay more than the market price.
