    I actually find myself wondering lately “what’s so bad about stable (+/- 5%/annum) profits for some stretches of time.” Sure you’re not eating up market share, but a couple million in the pocket every year really isn’t that bad…

    I… May not be cut out for capitalism…

      Only private companies can get away with thinking like that. Companies that can put the stakeholder’s interest ahead of the shareholder.
