Can i add my 2 cents please? this is a very civil discussion and i liked so i want to say, an endesly search for profit is fucked up and i first hand experience this in my country. For context i live in Honduras, a central american country which is famous for being a “banana republic” and currently is facing this issue:
All bussiness are trying to maximize their profit by cutting on employees wages.
and by all mean all small bussiness, every single bussiness that has less than 150 employees does this,(theres only like 10 companys with more than 150 people) legal minimun wage is 400$ per month, but they offer 170$ to 300$ per month becouse even if you legally complaint they just fire you and go hire somebody else. So the aftermatch of having most people winning less that 400$ per month is that we all cut corners here and there to survive, so, and i know this a strech, less money spending = companys selling less = more wages/quality cuts. Now we have a 50.30% poverty and no idea how to fix it. If small business start paying the 400$ theyll go broke and cost of living keeps getting up.
I know theres a bunch others things in this equation like Hurricanes, corruption/goverment high taxes etc but, how do you think we could fix this?
Anyone else think the concept and reality of profit is just...completely fucked up?
