There is a businessman or corporation that, in their ruthless pursuit of the bottom line, engage in activities that are clearly considered unethical. The activities may or may not be legal.

Examples:
In futurama1x13 "Fry and the Slurm Factory", the Slurm factory was an evil corporation that ruthlessly exploited its poor "Grunka-Lunka" thralls in order to produce an extraordinarily unhealthy but addictive Slurm cola which it marketed vigorously to the public.
