Sure, the aim of the competition is to see who can serve society best–but that is also the basis on which conscientious corporations compete!

Well, except for rent-seeking.

Has it occurred to you that the marketplace of ideas about how society should work is a very competitive marketplace? By proselytizing your views about how society should work, you are competing! Sure, the aim of the competition is to see who can serve society best--but that is also the basis on which conscientious corporations compete! I'm suggesting that you form a conscientious corporation, which seems just as compatible with your ideals as what you're doing right now.

Do you have a hard time signing papers or acquiring new skills?
