I think most business people do as I mentioned before - change laws, names, countries to escape punishment
I think all the things you're talking about are actually the result of labour.
who is at more risk? a billionaire/bank investing $50 million in a skyscraper or a labourer making $13 bucks an hour? if that project doesn't happen, who will suffer more?
I think farmers, construction workers, nurses, welders, receptionists, landscapers and teachers work at least as hard as any manager or stock holder. our economy has proven that it doesn't reward hard work, at least in direct monetary compensation... that's the most obvious thing.
I think we should ask people what they need/want, not have marketing companies and brand ambassadors trying to sell people things only designed to turn a profit
again, most service providers are people making low wages... I'm not sure what you mean by this one
I'm not sure how being born into wealth and then spending that wealth is any more of a contribution to society then some who works 40 years picking vegetables for people to eat.'
make money - and here is the root. the real reason this all exists. profit.
