Putting people before profits is how we've tried to operate from the beginning.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
People should only profit to the extent they make other peoples lives better.
We see ourselves as first helping to open up markets to competition.

If someone is going to profit from your work, they need to earn it.
Profits should be for a purpose. Profits should be productive. You should make money for producing benefits that make the world a better place. Making money is a good thing when it is made in service to humanity or the democracy.
People first, then money, then things.
The goal seems to me at times just to be business first.
The prison industrial complex is perhaps, at least domestically, the most striking example of us putting profit before people. It all stems from one basic misunderstanding: that the public good can be shepherded by private interests.
This hunger for profits causes great misery for the people.
Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves.
