I think business ethics is a huge part of why Schiit has been so successful. I can tell you that Schiit buying American parts whenever possibe, treating their employees well, not bad mouthing other companies, letting their products stand on their own merit, and investing in the community are big reasons why I buy from them.
I just don't think evacant is explaining himself well. Punctuation and grammar would help a lot as I can't really follow his train of thought.
There's no such thing as business ethics. People have ethics, not organizations like private/public/for profit/non profit etc. Schiit's founders are ethical because they treat their employees fairly and they communicate transparently, not because they buy American parts. That's a personal choice made by the founders in part to help local vendors, but it also results in them getting possibly faster and better access to both raw and finished components. Please don't conflate the two.
As for evacant, there are far more appropriate forums than this one to talk about labor practices. This is after all a hobbyist's forum.
