I’d just prefer that companies serve an array of purposes such that it is no longer exclusively about making shareholders as rich as possible. There has to be a better way. If all the actors in an economy act sociopathically, that economy itself is sociopathic. It’s generally seen that totalitarianism is an undesirable state for a government, so why do we accept it from companies?

Public goods should be provided by the public sector.

Because there is no such thing as a totalitarian company, apart from those owned and operated by the state.
