Who defines what is immoral? or explotation?

A company that breaks even is a dead company, especially as soon as it has it's first problem and has 0 money to save it.

That's why most people are so scared of losing their jobs, their life is a 0 profit business, so they can't survive even a couple of months without their job income.

Company profits (after tax) generally go to three places,
1. The owners/shareholders of the company
2. Get reinvested into the company, or are used to expand research, development, aquire other companies
3. Just saved in case of a rainy day.

Failure to do any of these would be the end of a company. If the owners didn't get paid, no one would start a company ever. You have to risk a lot, and put in a lot of effort to start a company, so people should be rewarded for it.

What you are suggesting is very close to socialism or communism.
