Should business entities be accountable to their employees in addition to their owners?

Senator Elizabeth Warren, a consumer advocate, has proposed a law that would require corporations to be responsible to employees and other stakeholders beyond the mantra of “maximizing returns to shareholders only”. She argues that this law would benefit the holistic ecosystem of the corporate entity, its workers and owners, as well as the overall market.
