Are you kidding? Do you think that business should care about the public first before its shareholders? Is that how you think business should work? Would you want to have your savings invested in a company that thought about the "public" first, not you first?

This is exactly the problem with our country today. Collectivism.

Business ONLY interest is to make money. If it does not make money, it goes out of business. "Some" government regulation is necessary, but never to the extent that business should consider the public interest first.
