I even doubt this sometimes.  Many corporations are about swindling the
stockholders and making a few criminals at the top richer.  All of the
money-market scandals, accounting scandals and dot-com busts are examples of
corporate officers making themselves rich while maximizing losses for their
corporations and stock holders.
