Sadly, that is the Exec's job. To maximize the value of a share of common stock. Pure and simple. Indeed, he has this as a LEGAL responsibility to the stockholders. It is in fact unlawful for him to make a decision based on considerations other than maximizing the value of a share of common stock. Corporations are truly, in both the practical and legals senses, amoral. When I am crowned Emperor, I will immediately remove corporations from the public policy -making process where I believe they have no business, and I will consider eliminating their legal ability to exist as entities apart from their owners.
