Inc.

Corporations are psychopaths that have no empathy and don't value human life.

Corporations are legislatively derived artificial individuals that can sue and be sued, raise funds, make political decisions, etc. They are headed by a Board of Directors that is by law duty bound to make decisions in the best interests of the corporation.

Since corporations are businesses, whose sole purpose is to make money, best interests are almost always those that increase profit; wherein human empathy is irrelevant.

By their very definition corporations forgo empathetic decision making because they are abstract beings. When making decisions that directly affect humanity empathy is a necessary ingredient. Take away the capacity for empathy and you are left with what we have today- psychopathy corporations spreading what we would deem to be evil all over the world. The corporate machine is a cold calculating one that makes decisions that solely pay homage to the bottom dollar with the wellbeing and needs of the human race coming up a distant second - if at all.

In a "perfect world" corporations would be held to the same moral standards as individuals, profits could not be made to the detriment of the environment, fair wages were paid on a global scale, and government leaders weren't paid off by corporations to make decisions directly against the best wishes of the people they were elected to represent.

Corporations are a greater threat to our lives than terrorists. That much should be clear by now. When corporations poison our food supply with toxic chemical ingredients; when they poison our bodies with fraudulently marketed pharmaceuticals; when they poison our oceans with careless oil drilling... they are threatening our lives and our livelihoods. They are destroying the only world we know, and they are proving themselves to be far more dangerous to our collective future than any terrorist organization.

The real terrorists, it turns out, have "Inc." after their name.

The peculiar thing about corporations is that it is impossible to pinpoint the evil they commit to a single person. Such acts of evil are almost exclusively team efforts with components of the actual act distributed among the corporate hierarchy. Sometimes the people committing the components of these acts are not aware of what they are doing: other times they justify it through the platitude that they are “just doing their job.” The real evil here is the concept of corporate Neo-capitalism; or perhaps more accurately, corporatocracy. The idea of generating unlimited growth and profits with no regard for moral consequences generates all manners of justification. The evil that is an acted upon the world is generated by the principles that govern the corporation itself.
