McElroy Sun, 30 Dec 2007 05:17:14 +0000 http://www.marcgunther.com/?p=306#comment-32509 Hello Marc: As a stockholder of many companies, let me be clear that I, for one, expect and demand that the companies I own not only seek to maximize profits, but also to function within our collective ecological means, and take steps to help create and maintain the human and social means within which to live. Any company out there that persists in thinking that its owners necessarily care only about the financial bottom line is disserving its constituents. What we want is prosperity by means of justice and peace, not in lieu of them. The sooner we get the short-term, confused thinkers out of business, the better. Thanks, Marc (and Bob), for helpint to bring this to light. Regards, Mark Hello Marc:
