Under capitalism, it’s immoral to leave money on the table. Honesty and integrity have nothing to do with it. Value for the stockholders is where it’s at!
Businesses are in business to make money, and they’ll do it any way they can. The only way to stop them from doing it in anti-social ways is to make those methods illegal and impose penalties for violating those rules more expensive than the profit they’d get out of it. (The drawback to this state of affairs, of course, is that such laws have to be passed by elected representatives, many of whom are dependent on those businesses for campaign contributions.)

Just because you believe something doesn’t mean you have to tell everybody sometimes it is better just to keep your mouth shut.

If honesty was more important than $$, faux news would not exist.

There is simply no place you can get an objective opinion in a medium that depends on hundreds of thousands of readers and four with bad taste. :(
