That's the useful thing about the corporation: it behaves amorally as a pure capitalist agent; an entity that insulates itself from such conscience as its constituent members may themselves harbor. Reminds me of Bruce Nauman's proposal for a Holocaust memorial in Germany (discussed somewhere in relation to the current Jewish Museum show): a big sign saying "We're sorry, and we'll never do it again." But they never are, and they always will.
