CassiusBelli: Within what they can get away with, within Gov regulations.
Yes profit is BB main motive, that insures that they do everything they can to be ahead of their competition, to stay ahead they have to continously invent new technologies and they must hire people to help grow their business,that creates jobs which is for the public good, the technologies that they create is also for the public good. the problem is government regulation that gets in the way
Annul that Unholy Matrimony of Business and Government,and you see the Benefits the "Common Man" will reap. When no one is able to wheedle Favours out of Politicians for Kickbacks,and to throttle the Competitor that has more ability! Nothing worse,than someone coming to your Business,saying,I am from the Government,let me help you!

The poll is more-or-less tracking my own opinion at present, though perhaps I shouldn't have included the "H**l no!" option as it doesn't give much info.
I certainly think big business is not well regulated right now - and have serious doubts about whether effective regulation is possible without a major overhaul of the Australian democratic system. (That's not to be taken as a plug for socialism.)

The grammar's a little wrinkled here... but you seem to think I'm "not wishing their [the average punter's] response"? How on earth did you come to that conclusion?
