Disagree. The corporate structure is required in a society to create a platform to conduct business. Business is necessary for the socity to function. Companies provide the businesses that is needed in society. However, when companies cannot sustain themselves in the business environment they will fail, and cause significant pain to the society. At least, in our capitalistic world (non-socialist) the Companies are not here just for the benefit of the employees. The existance of well functioning, profitable companies benefits society. The people that are employed by companies can benefit themselves through employment, the company and the society. And the converse is true too. The company needs to survive so it can continue to be sustainable, and then it will benefit to society. Being profitable and having the potential to grow and compete in an everchanging market is the hallmark of a good company.
