    “The best interest of the business” is far too lenient in its wording. Some of the shareholder derivative lawsuits out there are fucking wild.

    Simple things such as “paying your workers too much”, “acting with too much emphasis on morality over capital gains”, it all does have to come back to shareholder profits, ever since Dodge Vs. Ford.

      “The best interest of the business” is far too lenient in its wording.

      And yet that’s how it works, because business is not a linear thing. Do you have any idea how long “MUXEMOOSE PROOFITS!!!” types have been whining about the price of Costco’s hot dog?
