You seem to miss that companies that think quarter to quarter behave just like this.

>So, dump the untreated toxic waste into the river, then?

You mean like the current administration that's trying to get rid of the EPA?

Did I miss that, or was I commenting on that exact thing?

What's your point with that political derail? It's honestly baffling.

It's not just a political derail to bring up a highly-visible example of the described behaviour. People don't care if they aren't forced to care, and in a world driven by deadlines, we're only motivated to care a certain amount.

There used to be an intrinsic motivator of "well, my kids are going to suffer if I don't push for long-term relationships", but now we aren't having kids, so that carrot doesn't work, and that attitude is bubbling up into the corporate world.

Sure, but let's be clear, we shouldn't be taking any lessons from the Trump regime on how to live in virtually any aspect in one's life. If anything they're a shining example of everything not to do.
