Yes, a corporation like Edwards Lifesciences SHOULD be on the forefront of scientific progress. That is their industry and field, and being on the forefront is how they return to shareholders. A corporation like JP Morgan SHOULD be on the forefront of economic progress, as that is how they create returns to shareholders.
Corporations have ZERO business being anywhere at all involved with social anything, unless they cover Hollywood news or need to stay abreast of the zeitgeist for their movie/tv products to appeal to the masses and generate revenue (id est - returns to shareholders).
Corporations should be as separate from Social reform as church is from state.
