well no, you're supposed to generate as much profit as possible for someone else at every moment. nothing is truly designed to help people or provide a good service anymore, at least not without hefty profit margins -- as is their god given right. i mean its a business they hvae to do the number!!

Well, you know the old Greek saying:

"A society grows great when people plant trees whose fruit they will not enjoy, for the corporation will have other people pick it, package it, and sell it back to them all at a 150% profit margin."
