They can barely function properly but they want to expand and add more responsibilities. Example: Wal-Mart wanting to and selling grocerys. They bring pallets out on to the floor that are misstacked and dangerously leaning while the public are still "in house", carts in front of the door and parking spaces, disorganized or no stockroom, inadequate and unknowledgeable employees, improper training and management,etc. but they are going to expand with the assets and personal they have.
I know you have a company that you wonder about as well.

Because ambition and greed are stronger emotions than realistic planning and a calm desire for a stable, competently managed business.

Here's why: Because growth is the goal of any business. Without it, you become stagnant....and subsequently stop having any business. In addition....the people who strategize for the company are executives, and they don't interact with the people who work on the floor, so they really aren't aware of the logistics (like how you were saying that s*** could fall on people and they're too stupid to care...........) some of it is because they're stupid and some of it is because they truly don't have to care -- some people get promoted because it's easier to promote someone who is mediocre but knows what is going on in a certain position, than it is to train someone from outside the org. . This leads to non-managerial types making it up the ladder into a position where they think their job as "manager" of something means that they get to act less like a manager and more of the "Boss-O-Saurus-Rex". They don't have people skills. They'e just control freaks, but these people are the ones who get to make the rules. Some people think this is the American Dream. I think it's poo disguised as goodness! F Wallmart anyway!

Because the companies or entrepreneurs want to retain or increase their share of the market. I am sure they do not just expand for the sake of it. A smooth operation is not the point, but a profitable result in the business and finding a way to retain or build on this result!

It is not a question of the Company operating in a smooth fashion on a day to day basis but the matter of their existence in the dog eat dog market on a long term basis. Company's will cease to exist if they are not expanding.
Any company or individual entrepreneur will be swamped by their competitors if they sit on their past achievements.

expansion increases revenue and revenue produces capital and capital promotes expansion.
IE the more the better or so it seems.
