Moms Can Be “PERNICIOUS”? …Seriously?!

Is nowadays mothers’ daily behavior of making baby food on their own pernicious? I doubt.

Similar to Pierre and the writer of the article “Pernicious Moms Threaten Capitalism” Rebecca, I have serious ethical concerns about Beech-Nut Nutrition President, Jeff Boutelle, or to be general, the businessmen.

 

Yes, it IS important for business to make profit, to make money, and honestly that is the main reason of the existence of business. Milton Friedman said, “The social responsibility of business is to increase profits” and it seems for him the only social responsibility of business is to maximize their profit but not spend even one buck on charity or other social matters. I guess that is why Jeff Boutelle thought moms’ attempt of making their own baby food is pernicious. OMG they are threatening the development of baby food companies because they are not going to buy their products anymore! How dangerous!

 

…Seriously? That is the funniest joke I’ve never heard. Guess what? Babies’ health, reduction of environment footprint, saving natural resources… I will say, any of those matters is definitely more important than making more profits from social concern.

 

Perhaps it is the time for businessmen to put down their calculators and have a look at the beautiful world.
