[Marta Russell]

What it needs to be about is the corporation period.  Corporations 
are only organized to promote the accummulation of wealth -- the one 
and only goal of business is to make money for the shareholders -- 
that excludes (omits) social need and social goals outside that 
corporation.  So any inside jockying for a better position for one 
interest be it labor investors or capitalist investors or another is 
missing the systemic problem -  money into more money does not equal 
social justice.
