short termism, n.All

Short-termism (n.) rules ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠wherever business runs society: the quarter's earnings and the fight for customers crowd out any sane long-range plan.

Short-termism (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠institutional, not stupid: a carmaker investing in clean cars for ten years hence is undersold today and gone tomorrow.
