I think opinions like this are interesting, companies "serving the community." If a company is in business to make money, are they in business to serve the community???? Is the goal of these said companies to come up with a life saving product or is it to make a ton of money because they came up with a good product??? I think the latter. I have no problem with a for profit company making money, I have an issue when they are in business to make money and call it "serving the community."
As you can guess, I don't believe that a lot of businesses are here to "serve the community."
