how should the world’s economy develop? what companies should be developed? how should the profit be distributed? should it be illegal for companies to make a profit at all?

(note that i think that it is generally unavoidable that some companies make some profit, the grey area on the image of the supply-demand diagram (or rather quantity-price diagram) is the profit, and that would only be zero if all companies have exactly the same production costs per unit.)

    Profit for solving problems is good. But when your customer is a nation’s government and their “problems” are only framed as such from an evil perspective, then profiting from that evil is also evil.
