I have nothing but admiration and respect for any business person who takes on the responsibility to make a payroll, pay their suppliers, keep their customers coming back; and to provide housing, food, school, medical, clothing for their own family. All the while working to save for their future/retirement. And to consistently do this for years or decades in spite of periods of economic hard times.

To say there is no good reason to try to make a profit perhaps is a lack of understanding of what makes our free enterprise system so rewarding for those who work smart/hard.

As consumers we can simply avoid doing business with someone we think is "too greedy".
