[QUOTE="CentaurG2, post: 1349351, member: 32137"] Social responsibility is a concept that is quite foreign to American businesses. The primary responsibility of a Company is to make profit for its shareholders. If some social good come from this, than all the better. Times are changing and both government and the public are demanding that large corporations take on more responsibilities other than just sponsoring NASCAR. This is a very tragic situation that represents a failing at all levels in our society. The government failed to help this fellow, the state failed, the company failed, the town failed, the community failed and ultimately this man failed to help himself. Just randomly trying to assign blame is in my opinion pointless and I will get off my soapbox now… [/QUOTE]
