Fair point, I was unaware of this case.
Yes they actually do. Look up Dodge v. Ford Motor Company. A business must be run in the interests of the shareholders, not the public, not the employees, not even the business itself.
Is it morally right? Fuck no. Is it the law? Unfortunately yes.
Something similar has happened. Look up Dodge vs. Ford Motor Co where the Michigan Supreme Court ruled that a ceo must operate in the interest of the shareholders not in the interests of the business and it’s employees.
It brought you, didn’t it?
Unfortunately no US official will ever see justice. Domestically, what they’re doing is not seen as a crime and the US will invade Holland before any US official sees the ICJ. That’s not hyperbole, that’s US law.
We’re the biggest kid on the playground and so we don’t play by everyone else’s rules. All with a “What are you gonna do about it” attitude.
In case my tone isn’t clear: I see this as a bad thing.
And any hint of it immediately draws all the people talking about how we should take the moral high road (that’s filled with corpses of people doing the same thing) and not resort to violence or even inconvenient protests
Yes, because more violence is the answer /s
News flash: your thinking is exactly why palestine and friends do not get as much sympathy as they should.
Look at that, it works!
Lynching? Because he’s technically African-American? Wow dude.
I agree with ending the rich and nationalizing their fortunes, but that’s a bad joke.
Probably, but you’d have to build your name as a reputable pollster (maybe by hiring pollsters from actually reputable polling companies) before turning to this or no one will buy your fake polls.
So does giving a rival head of state “the Osama Bin Laden treatment”.
Oct 7 was the pretense Bibi needed to start his genocide. Why would they stop it?
Same thing as George W. Bush (moreso Cheney and Haliburton) wanting war in the middle east and letting 9-11 happen despite actionable intelligence beforehand.
How about we nationalize all three instead, start operating them for the public good?

You’re underestimating the effect of his father knowing the right people. Yes, there was no “small million-dollar loan” and yes Warren actually hustled quite a bit to capitalize on the advantages given to him by his father, but that doesn’t erase those advantages when talking about his success.
Hard work is not the thing that got him where he is. If it were there are millions of people working multiple who should also be billionaires. Or, better yet, no one should be a billionaire at all and we make it so people don’t have to work multiple jobs to survive, but I digress.
And then you get a visit from Mossad to send a message to your vice president.
Buffett himself is a nepo-baby. His father was a congressman who’s connections were very helpful when starting out in business and investing.
Sure it isn’t Emerald mine money, but you can’t tell me being the son of a 4-term congressman didn’t give him a leg up.
As Catherine Ryan put it: “She’s just an innocent gold digger who got in way over her head”.
So exactly what was said about Biden in 2020. Except once Biden was elected that pressure evaporated as liberals lost interest in progressive policies.
Hence “mission accomplished”
Apologies, but I was reading them in person so I don’t have links to them. Maybe try on the website for the secretary of state in Nevada?
You’ve what? Had a stroke?
