I feel there is a general expectation in society to get rich from your business.
Discussing on the basis of your feelings isn't as good as discussing on the basis of facts.
How you feel is no real argument in a forum discussion.

If they want to, they can charge extra on their products so they can use their profits to pay for expensive things, and buy more investment properties. It's just wrong.
I just want to show that producing value is a better goal than trying to minimize profits.
If someone produces values and makes money their is nothing wrong.
If you produce something that isn't perceived as valuable you won't make any money.

That is the area where you can do something, persuade people that fast food has no value for them. If you succed they won't buy any fast food and companys who want to make money won't sell any fast food.
Same with enviromental issues.
When people perceive a product that is produced environemental friendly as more valuable, companys have an incentive to produce those products.
