I know what you're saying, but i think that all changed in the eighties. Profit became much more important than decency, and still is. Everytime you hear someone talk about "letting the market handle it" is a reflection of this shift. The market cares solely about making money. The market is a completely different system of morality, and if you happen to think that morals should ultimately guide people towards creating a better world to live in, a wholly inadequate system.
