Personally, I side with neither side. This thesis is just too general in the scope and definition of the concept “industries and companies”. As we all well know, not every industries is harmful and noisy to us ,but some of them are. Thus ,how can we treat these different companies with an identical view? Putting them together and give any comparison is quite unreasonable at all.
Before we jump on any bandwagon , we had better think twice and then give our judgment.
