The two sides of capitalism:
- Nothing is worth doing if it can't turn a profit
- Anything is justifiable, no matter how inhumane, if it results in profit

@lipsticksocialist Which is silly and scary, now that I think of it. This kind of capitalism literally utilizes profit both as the reason and the goal, as where it comes from and what it leads into.
@lipsticksocialist Two sides? They both look like one and the same side - at least from the formal logic point of view.
Where is profit, therefore there must be justification; where is justification, therefore there must be profit.
These two concepts seem to be one and the same in hardcore capitalism.
