Look at Ben and Jerry’s, they pay their employees well, they care about the environment, not everything is about profit. Ben and jerry are probably rich but not “more money than someone could spend in 100 lifetimes” rich. Maybe we can find a middle ground between the Walmart billionaires employees are on food stamps subsidized by tax dollars and the socialist government owns everything.

Ben and Jerry’s is the #1 ice cream business. Last year they made over $800 million in sales. Stop being fooled, all successful businesses are 100% about profit

So why aren’t they giving their ice cream away?
Oh yes...that’s right...capitalism.
Ben and Jerry’s doesn’t exist under communism / socialism.
Now before you try to tell me about Sweden being “socialist,” allow me to enlighten you.
Sweden is not a socialist success

I can more than guarantee B&J didn't get into the position they are without being cut throat business guys. They put on a nice show, and that makes Karen happy when she pays $7.99 for a pint of ice cream at the store, but those guys love capitalism whether they admit it or not.
