I mean ... yeah. If it's a thing you must have, then it should not be for profit. Staple foods definitely qualify.

To be perfectly clear, when I say "not for profit" I mean that the costs of plant and equipment, administration, materials, logistics, labor, etc. are all paid for out of revenue - and a small fixed percentage to go into a fund to ward against variations in revenue, so that the business and its employees can continue to provide the public good and earn a living even in lean times.

I’m guessing we agree whole heartedly on this issue we are just using different language to say the same thing.

Oh I wasn’t trying to be argumentative with you at all. Just talking.
