I work in healthcare IT, we develop medical systems which help physicians to help people. It sounds like a good field to work in, but it's still about money in the end, looking for ways to maximise profits, because we live in a capitalist system. As long as profits play the main role, there always is a dark side.
Absolutely. There's a line between "willfully sold out to Evil Corp because money good and I like money lol", and "I need a job because eating is nice and they were hiring."
The original post about Lockheed makes sense, but someone's gotta be on an extremely privileged self-righteous high horse to shout "Baby killer!" at like, the dude working the lobby desk. Lol
Yup. "Capitalism values only what it can count, and it can only count dollars. Every capitalist wants to invest as little and profit as much as possible."
