I taught business ethnics for MBAs when i was in graduate school.

The only 'ethics' they learned was 'maximize shareholder value at any price'. They spent an entire semester learning to to argue why murdering people and abusing people was morally justified as long as the share price goes up. That was the curriculum. Nothing else mattered.

It really started with Dodge vs Ford, that codified the mentality as mainstream and we have paid the price for it every year since.
