Cook Medical deserves kudos for upholding its civic responsibilities in the community and the neighborhood where they employ people. More businesses need to embrace the example.
I greatly admire those who, through achievement and fortitude, are in the position to make things happen on such a human scale. Well done, sir.
The Cook legacy of helping continues. Thank you Mr Yonkman and your staff moving past the known issues and finding solutions with the people that know best.
Growing up in that and the meadows area it’s disheartening to see how far it has sunk. A lot of companies have tried to make a difference in that area and failed. Hopefully Cook can collaborate with all the pertinent players to make a difference.
Thank you Cook Medical
This is a heck of a rebuttal to Milton Friedman’s old “The Social Responsibility of Business is to Increase its Profits” essay.
But it is also sad that neighborhood folks need a company owned by one of the richest people in the state to stand up for them to get things taken care of.
In all fairness to Milton Friedman, his view on a company’s “social responsibility” of a business to “increase its profits” was focused only on companies with shareholders.
In that regard, he was correct because if a business failed to provide returns on the investments of its shareholders, it would not be in business for long and, in turn, the shareholders would not be able to uphold their social responsibilities to the communities in which they live and work.
Because it is a private, family-owned business with no shareholders, Cook Medical therefore is free to use family resources to contribute to social endeavors of its choosing and magnitude.
This is promising and positive news. Kudos to Cook Medical !!!
