I made essentially the same comment on another thread yesterday, but I think it might have gone over most people's heads. That or they didn't want to admit it.

I think it's a bit self-indulgent to consider that this is big-brained or world-shattering to people. You're just repeating the dominant explanation for why these companies can make profit despite their immorality, it isn't challenging or new.
