We learned just how small Valve really is this year, but also how good it is at raking in the cash: It's making more money per employee than Apple (www.pcgamer.com)

his money has come from no oppression or cheap labor or dirty money, or slavery or anything else.

It came from loot crates.

So don't buy loot crates if you don't want to.

Also, his money came from Half Life episodes 1 and 2, and creating what would be known as the "Steam" store and getting it downloaded on every PC with Half Life 2 on it. Loot boxes were side jobs that came way later.
