    The final clause of this (run-on) sentence should not be ignored.

    It would appear to imply that some are so naive as to assume that the heads of big corporations must be altruists, who will "do things that benefit the country," out of the sheer goodness of their hearts.

    I am aware of no one who believes any such thing; which you have (rightly) described as "ludicrous."

    What we do believe, however, is that corporate chieftans tend to do whatever they perceive to be in their own (and their major shareholders') best interests; and that this can dovetail quite nicely with the public interest. For instance, if corporate taxes are kept low, regulations left minimal, and the outlook is fixed for the foreseeable future, corporations are likely to expand (and therefore hire more people) than they are if the opposite is the case...
