The fact that they’re literally endangering the planet in the pursuit of profit doesn’t even register.

Nitpick: Its not profit per se that the CD denying mega-corporations are after. Otherwise, they would’ve invested in solar power by now just to cash in. Its hard to argue lately that its more profitable to fight it instead. If they were really all about the money, they wouldn’t care where the money came from.

But they clearly do care. Which means that money isn’t enough for them.

No, what they want is power. They want us, the general public, to need them. They want us to have no choice but to bow before them. This isn’t (just) capitalism, this is feudalism. They’re our lords and they don’t want that to change.
