    Capitalists do whatever they can get away with to goose profit.

    Which is basically everything since they hired the people who wrote the laws and bribed the politicians to pass them. (see ALEC)

    What is immature to doing what can be gotten away with to them in kind? Isn’t that just, as the capitalists say, exercising our highly virtuous rational self-interest?
