Lou:
Well, keep at it, we may be agreement yet....
Maybe I am reading you wrong but I think I got two contradictory ideas
in your first two paragraphs. First, profit shouldn't be the only
motive because profit as the only motive is the 'wrong reason' ...then
'if you remove profits, you get bad results'.
So, you mean you want profits, but not just profits?.
Lou it seems to me you either you work for money or you work for
something else.
And the inequities, mediocrities, injustices, etc. that are inherent in
systems aren't there because of the systems (profit motivated or
otherwise) but are there because of people. Changing the system doesn't
do much if we don't change the people methinks.
But then, I could be wrong. It's happened before....
Love, Bette
