Yes, of course, because no real people actually run companies. CEOs are pod-people that are raised to be mean and cruel, like pit-bulls, in the backyards of major Republican supporters. It's a little known fact that the scene in Lord of the Rings where they showed the Uruk Hai being bred in snot pods that that was just a How-To video produced by the RNC that was just edited in to the movie. Those weren't guys in Orc suits. Those were businessmen without their latex people suits on.
By your logic, treating people well produces no dividends. Humanity is non-profitable. Social liberalism is anti-capitalism. Work is war and profit is only ever blood-money. That says more about you than it does about life in 2004. Reality is as it is. While it may be very true that the Prussian education model that dominates our government (read: Democrat) run skool system is designed to produced brain-dead followers, the reality of our society has evolved.
Eliminating government regulation won't suddenly make people stupid. The rules of business willnot change back to what they were at the turn of the last century. Did you notice that I DID NOT say there would be no regulation at all? No, you didn't. At even the suggestion of removing Momma Gubbermint from it's position of power in Business, your moon crashed into your New York. The fact that you cannot even consider other options should wake you up to the fact that you're too heavily invested in the status quo.
Here's a rough draft of a system that could replace government regulation, or part of it anyway. If you can stand to read through it, I'd be happy to flesh the guild thingy out a bit better for you if necessary. That's just one idea, and I'd be happy to argue it with you. Maybe we could work together and come up with a system that would work perfectly... if you can overcome your superstitious fears of corporations, that is, of course...
