They use workers' minds and bodies only as a tool to fuel even more greed, then discard them when broken and useless. Greed is a business excess of which we should feel shame rather than pride. Greed can be addictive. It never satisfies but leads to more cravings, tearing down individual rights and respect and ultimately weakening a company's vitality in terms of productivity, growth and profitability. If greedy CEOs claim to have made millions of dollars for themselves and created thousands of jobs, they could have achieved 10-fold more if they would have eliminated greed.
Greedy executives abhor ethical behavior, and ethical executives abhor greed.
They will circumvent the law, ignore family, friends and any form of ethical behavior to achieve personal wealth. My desires are all that matters. They perceive themselves to be superior to others and exempt from accepted rules of behavior. They freely choose to ignore the ethical, physical or mental impact of their actions on others. These executives are despised by others both inside and outside their business, and they don't care.
