Hubris. Always the downfall of man.
It only takes a few bad execs to ruin or currupt the hard work of a lot of good people down below. Story is common enough and prolly will never really change.
As far as Monsanto is concerned, they seem quite firmly planted on the bastardly side of the scale. Before the seed controversies, there were huge
