Corporate greed corrodes quality. After founders are pushed out and companies are sold, management often optimizes for the obvious metrics—profit and growth—while neglecting what actually sustains value: trust, reputation, and product usefulness.

Bureaucracy amplifies the damage. When responsibility is shifted across layers of hierarchy, decisions become short-term and incoherent, the system produces waste and disorder.

Might be delusional that some corporations were able to deliver good products. But don’t forget the other side, the pollution.

I’d imagine such a thing as the gradient of will: what most bureaucracies and corporations deliver is more about saturated noise than an actual color-in-place.
