Exactly, and that might be a good thing. I don't have the answer to that question but it sure seems to me like our current system ruins lives and the environment to enrich the few who are willing to step on everyone else. Doesn't seem ideal to put it lightly

I do not see how you can judge others for being “bigger assholes” if you do not have an answer for what better choices they should have made.

> Business are still run by people. Nobody was forced to see someone else doing something shitty and then say "well I just need to be a bigger asshole than that guy! Must be okay 'cause it's not illegal"

Paying people more than the minimum wage and not outsourcing just to save money (which some argue is just another form of imperialism)

I think that would be a good start

And then what? Go out of business because people prefer to shop at H&M and Old Navy due to their lower prices?

The blame here lies solely on society and the politicians it elects. There is no other solution where individual business owners can be expected to take on societal problems.
