It was not acceptable but it was very much understandable.
And honestly I don’t think it’s Thompson’s fault. He’s just doing what’s expected of him as the CEO of a profit-oriented company. The one at fault are the Legislators that let this happend and the laws/conventions of the stock market that prioritize revenue and growth above all.
If anything, Legislators and Investors should have been shot, not Thompson.
