Good morning and Happy Thursday! CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY You may recall that I wrote a Musing about corporate responsibility in a time when our country and our economy really require “all hands on deck.” It seems it is time to reconsider whether the “sole” purpose of a corporation is shareholder profit or whether there perhaps are responsibilities to employees, consumers, and those most affected by the corporation’s actions. After all, if we are going to treat corporations as “people,” with respect to speech, it would seem logical to treat them as “people” when they despoil the environment.
