CEOs of 181 top American companies - including Apple and Amazon - say the new focus of corporations is to 'improve society' rather than make
181 CEOs of top US companies have re-defined the purpose of a corporation
Before the purpose of a corporation was defined as maximizing profits for stakeholders, now the purpose is to improve society as well
The new definition was released on Monday by the Business Roundtable, a group of top American CEOs that dates back to 1997


181 CEOs signed the statement including J.P Morgan, Boeing, Apple, & Amazon
The new statement says corporations will focus on valuing customers, hiring diverse groups and compensating them fairly, and protecting the environment

The CEOs of nearly 200 of the top companies in the U.S. have redefined the purpose of a corporation, saying a stakeholder’s interests are no longer the top priority - and the new focus is to better society.

The updated definition was released on Monday by the Business Roundtable, a group that dates back to 1997 and gathers together many of America’s most influential corporate leaders including top names like J.P Morgan, Boeing, Apple, and Amazon.

The statement redefined the purpose of a corporation with social consciousness in mind, saying corporations are now committed to valuing customers, investing in employees by hiring diverse groups and compensating them fairly, dealing ethically with suppliers, protecting the environment with sustainable practices and supporting local communities.

It's a stark contrast from the longstanding principle that companies function first and foremost to benefit shareholders and maximize their profits.

So, they are going balls to the wall now, with their anti male, anti White, anti Christian agenda.

They want to collapse society, to enable British Monarchist corporeal, and Roman Catholic ecclesiastic, supremacy.

They want to restore Crown and Church, and as was correctly guessed, reduce us to uneducated serfs. That is the real reason they are destroying the places of education. Be it k-12, college/university and the public library system.

We are on the cusp of another Dark Age, brought to us by the British Royalty and Nobility, and the Roman Catholic Church. The British Crown will blame their agents while hiding their own guilt, whom they sent into all Western Governments, and say "the small folk just aren't cut out to govern themselves".

The Church, will blame their agents, and hide their own guilt when they say "see, this is what happens when you try to leave the mother Church. Homosexual Bishops and other abominations".

Look at many of the corporations, they are owned by the British or Roman Catholic's. This is asymmetrical warfare against America.

THAT is the way most corporations USED to run, when they were run by their founders or the founders' families. Once the Wall Street crowd came in the companies almost across the board stopped caring about their employees, the people of the area where they were located, or the communities themselves.

In my older industrial state when I drive around I see parks everywhere given by those companies. I see schools built 100% by those companies (really NICE schools for their time). Great housing that the workers could buy and live in since they were being paid great wages (the owners "sharing" their good fortune with the people who lived around them)

Wall Streeters don't give a damn about their employees, the areas where they operate, or the general public at all.

In those few towns and cities here in the industrial midwest where the industry is STILL owned by the founding families those places STILL get regular injections of money into their communities from those companies - money for increasing the quality of life for the entire community ... where it is all owned by Wall Street? NO WAY!

Although a Conservative Republican I have always thought that the Wall Street Banker Types are Corporate Vultures of the WORST TYPE .... and have long disagreed with the Harvard MBA approach to how to run a business.

I was watching the food that built america last week on History. They talked about how companies built crappy housing so workers could be close. Then they focused on Hershey building a town with great housing so his workers would be happy and produce better, even before he had perfected his mild chocolate recipe. Now the CORPS. dont about long time customers, its all about the new business.

I am with comcast cable ( traitorous bastards) and they will pay a new customer 300 gift card and give them better channels than a loyal customer. That is what is wrong with America.

Yeah, we don't want to be genocided. This is a full blown, anti White doctrine.

What this means is, Whites will face ever more discrimination in employment.

What this means is Christians will face ever more discrimination in employment.

These same people, openly talked about genociding Whites, to advance globalism, by denying Whites economic opportunities to start families and procreate.

As i posted a thread about already,

The 0.8% have their 436 million slaves (1st instruction on the guidestones is 'maintain humanity under 500 million')

That's 10 slaves per 0.8% er.

42 million + 436 million = 'under 500 million'


The evidence is here:

So, now they go about continuity of the system (even if it means ridding 90% of the population) using a technique called 'exhaustion' (exhausting access to resources).
