Corporations are run by humans, though. Also, it's not their corporate need to make money for their shareholders at question here, especially as they have spectacularly failed to do so given that they've created a massive economic slump. It's individual human greed that is at question, which is something that can be governed by moral codes.

Check the FTSE value now to 4 years ago. Losses, what losses? Shareholders aren't usually in for the short haul. Boom and bust, that's how capitalism rolls. This isn't about individual human greed at all. At least, not in a overriding sense.
