That's my point. Businesses care only about profit, even when its clearly detrimental to everyone else. There's no consideration for happiness or quality of life and no ethic if you only chase profit. For how much we've been pushed to believe this is perfecly normal, to me it's insane.
You know what would quickly increase happiness and quality of life for a whole bunch of people? If you would just donate your entire life savings to charity tomorrow. Your not doing that is clearly detrimental to all those people you would have helped. Please consider happiness, quality of life, ethics, etc, and stop chasing profit.
Oh please, do a favour to yourself and use your intelligence before engaging in discussion. I as an individual have barely what I need to survive. My choice is not between huge profit and slightly less profit, but between paying the rent or ending on the streets. Businesses on the other hand have proven again and again that they will do anything to increase the profit even when already largely profitable.
Why doesn any argument about "a LITTLE less profit" must be countered with reducting to absurd? I really would like to know why did you make such argument.
you guys are cynical but lets take this one step further. the real reason the OPs plan wasn't implemented was because some cto or ceo had stock or got a kick back from some surveillance company ;-)
