Have you ever wondered what lengths some companies would go to in order to make a profit? 💰 Unfortunately, there are some companies out there that are not afraid to put people’s lives at risk in pursuit of money. In this article, we will delve into the world of deadly companies and discover which companies have been known to prioritize profits over the safety and well-being of their customers.
### The Most Notorious Deadly Companies
1. **Tobacco Companies**:
– Companies like Philip Morris and British American Tobacco have long been known for selling products that are proven to cause serious health issues, such as cancer and heart disease. Despite knowing the risks associated with smoking, these companies continue to market their products aggressively.
2. **Pharmaceutical Companies**:
– Some pharmaceutical companies have been accused of prioritizing profits over patient safety. For example, the opioid crisis in the United States has been largely attributed to the aggressive marketing tactics of companies like Purdue Pharma, which downplayed the addictive nature of their painkillers.
3. **Fast Food Chains**:
– Fast food chains like McDonald’s and KFC have come under fire for selling products that are high in unhealthy fats, sugars, and additives. These companies have been accused of contributing to the obesity epidemic and other related health issues.
4. **Chemical Companies**:
– Companies like Monsanto (now owned by Bayer) have been criticized for producing chemicals that are harmful to both human health and the environment. For example, the herbicide Roundup has been linked to cancer and other serious health issues.
5. **Tech Companies**:
– Some tech companies have faced scrutiny for their privacy practices and the potential harm that their products can cause. For example, Facebook has been accused of mishandling user data and allowing misinformation to spread on its platform.
### Why Do Companies Put People at Risk?
1. **Profit Motive**:
– The primary reason that companies put people at risk is the desire to maximize profits. In many cases, the pursuit of money clouds companies’ judgment and leads them to prioritize short-term gains over long-term consequences.
2. **Lack of Regulation**:
– Some industries, such as tobacco and pharmaceuticals, have historically been underregulated, allowing companies to operate with minimal oversight. This lack of regulation can embolden companies to take risks with people’s health and safety.
3. **Corporate Culture**:
– In some cases, toxic corporate cultures can incentivize employees to cut corners and disregard ethical considerations in order to meet financial targets. When profit becomes the primary goal, companies may be more willing to take dangerous risks.
### How to Protect Yourself
1. **Research**:
– Before doing business with a company, take the time to research their track record and any potential risks associated with their products or services. Look for reviews, news reports, and customer testimonials to get a better sense of the company’s reputation.
2. **Advocate for Regulation**:
– Get involved in advocacy efforts to push for stronger regulations in industries that are known for putting people at risk. Support lawmakers who champion consumer protection and hold companies accountable for their actions.
3. **Choose Ethical Alternatives**:
– Whenever possible, support companies that prioritize safety, transparency, and ethical business practices. By voting with your wallet, you can help drive change in the corporate world and encourage companies to prioritize people over profits.
In conclusion, it is important to be aware of the dangers posed by certain companies and to take steps to protect yourself and your loved ones. By staying informed, advocating for regulation, and supporting ethical businesses, you can help combat the influence of deadly companies in the marketplace. Remember, your health and safety should always come first, no matter the cost. Stay vigilant and informed, and don’t let dangerous companies put your well-being at risk.
A lot of companies today are already trying to kill us and they already have lots of money to do it, in their own tuition.
All of them, and the decision to do so would casually be approved by a group of executives without any hesitation or debate.
And it’ll probably be done over email, because that’s how unimportant they’d view you.
Tobacco industry
Many companies already are in a sense. They don’t care much about anyone’s safety. If someone dies it’s just the cost of business. They’ve decided this beforehand. Beforehand! They know someone could easily die but have figured out that it costs less to pay for a death than it is to engineer it out in the first place, and instead of being human beings, theyve decided that that death is a sacrifice theyre happy as a fucking clam to make.
All of them.
There is more money in cancer treatment than prevention.
Boeing
Academi/Blackwater, Wagner
Health insurance companies. They’ll deny your life saving treatment if they can find a way to do it.
“A major one”

Any of them.
History has shown this time and time and time and time again.
It’s why we regulate them.
Pfizer , Proctor and Gamble , Johnson and Johnson , pretty much any pharmaceutical company
Insurance companies take similar decisions all the time.
Nestle?
Better yet, name a company wouldn’t.
Any health insurance company. Their entire business model is doing exactly that
A better question would be what company that will **NOT** try to kill you.
Fill in name of random pharmaceutical company
It feels like most american food companies act this way. Putting strange chemicals into food just to save a buck.
I’m not a weirdo about food additives, but when I see the ingrediant list of bread in america vs bread in most other parts of the world, I do question whether the addition of monopoisonuraniumimate really makes makes bread better for me as a consumer and whether there is strong evidence that it doesn’t do bad things for my body.
Boeing. Looks like they’re cutting too many corners at the expense of safety.
Arms dealers? Quite literally ha
Nestle
Cartier
Danone
De beers
Any oil company
Amazon
Tencent
Most Swiss headquartered corporations
#Bayer
When Bayer’s Cutter Laboratories realized that their blood products, Factor VIII and IX or antihemophiliac factor (AHF), were contaminated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the financial investment in the product was considered too high to destroy the inventory. Cutter misrepresented the results of its own research and sold the contaminated AHF to overseas markets in Asia and Latin America without the precaution of heat treating the product recommended for eliminating the risk. As a consequence, hemophiliacs who infused the HIV-contaminated Factor VIII and IX tested positive for HIV and developed AIDS.

It doesn’t help that a company can almost commit murder, actually drive someone to suicide, and still no one, high up and responsible, will actually see the inside of a prison cell.
The ongoing Post Office scandal, in the UK, is a classic example.
Nestle would murder your baby for money, and *has done so in the past*
All of them really, but my first thought was the literal death squads funded by Coca-Cola.
CIA
If you look at the history of corporations in the US, you really shouldn’t be surprised that literally all of them would sicken/injure/kill you and your family if it would increase their stock value more than the bad PR would bring it down.
From the constant lobbying to deregulate so they can pollute/have poor working conditions and low pay be the norm, to the times they brought in police and mercenaries to gun down protesting workers, to the slave/prison labor they employ: they can, have, and are killing people right now for money. Capitalism breeds this attitude and makes it the norm.
While not all businesses are good and moral, and some suck…
It is important to remember that the products of many of them have saved lives and made loves more enjoyable.
Also… all combined, businesses have killed less people than governments. Just remember that.
Big sugar. They know their product is slowly killing people and they don’t care.
Define lots. Most would do it for 50 bucks
any company on the s and p 500 would scrap you for organs if they could get away with it
There was a car manufacturer that discovered a fatal error in their cars. I don’t remember what it was, but something very unlikely like it would catch on fire if the right turn signal was on when the windows were opened and you shifted into second gear and it was raining on a saturday. They calculated how likely it was that it would happen and how much they would have to pay in damages if people sued, vs. a recall of all the cars. It would have costed more to recall the cars, so they didn’t. I think some people died
Edit: It was the Ford Pinto https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grimshaw_v._Ford_Motor_Co
All of them? I don’t think I understand the question, literally all of them, and I’m having trouble with the idea that this isn’t already generally understood.
Monsanto, Nestle, the company that now owns the patent for insulin. Long, proven history of killing people, usually their own customers, for money.
Dating apps. They will never admit it, but they make more money the longer you stay single, so their strategy probably revolves around keeping their users sad, lonely, and single. And if you die, then cool, you won’t be around to cancel your subscription.
All of them. If you show me a CEO that would cost the company money by sparing your life, I’ll show you a CEO that will soon be replaced for not following his fiducial duties
Tobacco companies. Been doing it for years.
Drug cartels.
They could care less who they kill. There’s another addict waiting.
What company isn’t trying to kill you? Food companies are adding sugar to everything and God knows what kinda preservatives. Insurance companies – no need to tell you. Pharmacies – pricing out the middle class. Every corporation’s thriving on mankind’s slow march to death.
Vodafone. They betray you and don’t care. They almost managed to make a friend commit suicide.
Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta companies of most militaries around the world lol
Every big company would kill you if they earn money for it only reason a company exist ist to make money they dont care about anyhting
