Mr Hootington posted:One of my favorite things about finance social media and news is they all posts graphs and half the time include some blurb how it is the fault of "woke", "china", or "socialism". They have no idea what any of those words mean. every company has to cut costs in order to increase shareholder value, that's just basic business. WHY they are cutting costs tho, well now, that's all up to their personal politics.

euphronius posted:interesting business ethics question: if you as a board member become aware that the ceo ordered a hit on a whistleblower, do you have a duty to alert law enforcement ? I believe that would be a violation of their fiduciary responsibility to shareholders

Griz posted:is this like 2009 Detroit where your $1 house comes with $30k of back taxes and is completely uninhabitable requiring even more money to demolish and clean up? Most of those houses didn't come with 30k in back taxes, it was usually just a couple of thousand dollars The real issue is that 90% of the houses in Detroit that were vacant had to be torn down and rebuilt and the ones with usable frames still needed to have banks finance the loans to remodel which wasn't ever going to happen in a million years The projects that got finished were either ones with a commercial purpose in mind or were the result of wealthy failchidren with trust funds trying to recreate alphabet city closer to their plan b university Cities like Detroit and Baltimore are what it looks like when the housing as an investment model fails. They can't be revitalized because they're never going to be desirable real estate investment markets, if you can't turn a profit on the house nobody is gonna loan you the money to live there anyway Engorged Pedipalps has issued a correction as of 15:05 on Mar 25, 2024 |

There's no Tarasoff duty in business, your first duty is to the shareholders my dude. e: actually, Tarasoff wouldn't apply even since the crime has already been committed. I think that as long as you're not aware of it before it happens, you're good not report it to law enforcement (although maybe you need to report it to the shareholders under Sarbanes-Oxley? Corporate governance is not my strong suit.) sullat has issued a correction as of 15:18 on Mar 25, 2024 |

As an aside it's be really nice to see corporate personhood pushed in the other direction a little bit wouldn't it? Like when Boeing kills a whistleblower you obviously can't arrest Boeing the person but maybe Boeings board should have to elect an executive to take the murder charge you know what I mean
