    yes… because businesses are more important than democracies…

    you know, not that long ago these coverless books existed that came out every day. they had stories, news, even comics in them. and you know what? they even had advertisements in them!

    social media is a convenience to business. government is not a social convenience.

      Businesses are the ones that produce food, medicine, clothes, build houses, print books, provide gas and electricity, build roads, etc. There are businesses that have outlasted monarchies and democracies. I’m not a corpo schmuck but small businesses are the soul of the soul of our society.

        there, I fixed it.

        the purpose of any business is to be profitable, otherwise it’s a charity. businesses have zero philanthropic goals.

        people make a business profitable. People make the products and services. People consume the product.

        no people, no business.

        no government, no people, no business.

        don’t let greed cloud your judgement.

          Yes a business usually consists of people and is driven by profit, you sted the obvious, but what is your point?

          Do people buy their vacuums from Dyson Ltd. or from a guy named Kevin?

          It’s not just about profits, it’s about accountability. That’s what the different forms of corporations represent. A singular private person can’t and shouldn’t be held accountable for every product the produce. A business is a layer of protection of limited (Ltd.) accountability. How could anybody be motivated to invent or produce anything if a single miss use of your product that causes any harm (intended or not) could lead to you directly being held responsible and possible going to jail. A business on the other hand usually has limited accountability but is also held to a much higher standard of quality and proof than a private individual ever could.
