Robert Sterling CFO | M&A and Strategy Advisor

Mergers and Acquisitions… Another soulless capitalist whose only purpose is to:

  1. Perform leveraged hostile buyouts of solid companies with ‘struggling stock value’, gut them head to toe for any value, and leave the husk behind, or
  2. Join two corporations together whilst sneaking as much monopolistic structure past anti-trust regulations they can get away with

IMO, a “decent man” would have turned down working in a company that made health into a profit-making machine. He would have at least resigned when AI was pushed forward to deny even more medical claims, but instead gave his blessing. One can be evil and deadly without having to pull a trigger, look at the ton of politicians that do it daily and they get away with it because they look polished.

Yeah, this rural kid from Iowa grew up to be an evil parasite on society. This isn't the flex you think it is.

I know that not at leftists are vegan (though they should be) but I don’t think saying he worked in meat processing is a good example to give to convince us of his supposed moral character

tl;dr: The beginnings justify the ends. If you're a teenager thinking about becoming a murderer or rapist later in life, consider learning the trombone.
