Presumably Ammonite, some of the 'people in companies' do/might have children, but they are SO BUSY being CLEVER that they know nothing about them.

That's what boarding schools are for, parking yer kiddies out the way so you can get on with REAL LIFe, earning a crust.

And anyway, the structure of companies requires them to maximise profits, not take any care about their actuions beyond that.

Greed is the driver, ably backed up by Supidity and Shortsightedness.

And of course, all welded togther with 'religion' and 'consumerism'.
