    Society failed them both.

    I’d say society did pretty well by the CEO. It was unrelenting greed and placing profits over people that got him to his end. That’s on him.

      I think they mean that society, in its money worship, failed the guy killed. He obviously valued money over lives and he learned that somewhere.

        I think so too, but I disagree. No one is forced into a CEO lifestyle or profit-above-all mindset. I feel like that’s pretty much on him. Echoing a comment I saw elsewhere - my empathy is out of network for this guy.
