without profit there can exist no business. duh.

I guess that sinks my arguments about the inevitability of human social evolution toward greater empathy and compassion then, eh?

why should human social evolution be towards greater empathy and compassion?

why not 95% tend to evolve into selfish entities and 5% tend to be those who put compassion and empathy before their selfish desires?

this is the natural order which is destined..and nothing can change that

I beg to differ. Reason, you see, compels humanity forward toward a more compassionate, more empathetic, more kind, more cooperative global society.

You can't win a battle against reason when your battlefield is time.

So are you anti-business?

I am a post-capitalist. I possess radical imagination - I define this as the ability to imagine a better, more just, more reasonable, less violent future - and so I naturally regard modern capitalism as a dead thing walking.
