A report finds most of those companies whose CEOs signed the lofty commitment didn't follow through.

How does stakeholder capitalism make sense? Is it just another label for socialism? An excuse to raise prices? A marketing gimmick?

DEMS must REPENT or else SAYS the LORD Jeremiah 11:25 Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the peoples who do not call on your name. For they have devoured Jacob; they have devoured him completely and destroyed his homeland.

This is basically corporate gas lighting. 'Life/work balance' They load you up with more than you can get done, deny overtime, then penalize you for not getting it done forcing you to work on your time for free. But they're covered because they have a 'policy'.

Learn to recognize 'lip service', .

Sounds like the communist ideas of the 1950s in Romania...

Yesterday O'Biden promised to shut down the nation if a scientist asks him to. Today O'Biden wants a federally enforced mask mandate. What will be his edict tomorrow?

Which is how it was pre Jack Welch...

Project Veritas uncovers ‘ballot harvesting fraud’ in Minnesota: Devine By Miranda Devine September 27, 2020 | 10:09pm

If you read the fine print it says in -80 font: 'If it doesn't make dollars. It doesn't make sense.'

Probably correct. Not good but not criminal lol. How many folks and relatives do you know that live up to their promises in this day and age? lol.

In contrast to the 'Great Reset' to rescue capitalism, here is a bold agenda for transformational recovery combining climate justice, the importance of care in society, and finance for the common good. 'Pushing the reset button will not change the game'

Corporations DO not honor their commitments & they are involved in criminal fraud against the people. Its now known that oil companies lied about plastic recycling & were Awarded $BILLIONS of tax payer dollars dealing with recycling. We deserve that money back with interest. NOW!

What a shock! Companies only care about money! The way Disney sucks up to the Chinese who have concentration camps! We know you're gonna drop your BLM support if it costs you real money All corporations are evil

Did no one learn from the Reagan years, the Bush years, and the W Bush years? Trickle-down economics never seems to make it down to us: the everyday working class person?!! Why think the CEO's will always choose themselves over workers. ☹️

Number of people surprised by this: 0

A tiger does not change its stripes.

Good. These companies need to quit pandering to the socialist groups. They are attempting to buy protection and that obviously doesn’t work. These companies need to stop it.

This is my shocked face.. 😐

And we’re surprised?

Fed’s Covid-19 response could score once-embattled Powell another termFederal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell was once on the verge of being fired by President Donald Trump for not doing enough to turbocharge the U.S. economy. Now, he stands a decent chance of keeping his job no matter who is elected president. This usually means he balked at illegal and/or unethical orders. I’d fire him if I were president
