    All businesses weren’t doing much damage until they got big enough to do damage. Capitalism isn’t so much the pursuit of capital in general as it is the pursuit of capital over all else. If your diner values giving customers a good meal as much as it values making a profit, it’s great! But if it follows the capitalistic method of squeezing all profit from the scenario, all else be damned, then it’s just a smaller version of all the major businesses.
