I know corporate higher-ups can be soulless and carniverous, but how can they do this? (See details)

Asked by Ladymia69 (6881points) May 12th, 2011

I finally watched “Capitalism: A Love Story” and then did some after-movie research (because Michael Moore can be quite dramatic and sensationalistic). Companies like Wal-Mart, Bank of America, Walgreens, and DISNEY, for Christ’s sake, have a tradition of taking out insurance policies on their employees and shamelessly collecting on them when the poor schmuck dies…oh, yeah, and they give the family of the deceased not a crappy, worn-down penny.

First of all, has anyone here known anyone who (or a family of someone who) this has happened to? If so, how did they deal with it?

And secondly, how do these people sleep at night, and is there some special corner of Hellish eternity reserved just for them?

Sorry about my ultimate question being a bit sensationalistic and dramatic.
