Look up "shareholder primacy". It's enshrined in law.
BTW you said Midjourney is a profitable company elsewhere. Can you provide a source?
It literally isn't. Google shareholder primacy and you'll notice its a norm, not a law (in the USA).
You can also Google Midjourney.
It's a judicial precedent

Why don't you show us your Google result that proves Midjourney made of profit?
