Great article! And there is a eventual price to be paid for gains now without considering the effects on the future. You would be interested in values-based investing. Simply, it allows investors to reflect their values via their investment dollars. Regardless of our lawmakers stance on abortion, if hospitals cannot get funding from Wallstreet, abortions will stop. Both dollars and cents are the two things credited for making the world go round, but in this case, they also make it stop.
