If every company has "a responsibility" to do "the most profitable thing possible" then what's going to stop everyone from offering to sell people smack... on credit? Or whatever they can think of that comes closest to that?

@futurebird Because that wouldnt be the most profitable thing possible. In fact that would be probably one of the least profitable choices a company could make.

Purdue was intentionally over-selling a known addictive drug purely for profit, many users of which side-stepped to heroin and fentanyl. Doesn't seem metaphorical to me!

Well its only metaphorical in the sense that it wasnt heroin/smack they were selling but rather something similar.

But yes it sounds very similar.
