When I hear the phrase corporate profits, I think of the fact that they aren't really profits at all. According to a UN report, the amount of environmental damage the companies caused is on par in dollar terms than the profits they made. They just exchanged something for something else, except that the global population has to eat the losses in the form of pollution. Nothing is free in this world unfortunately, not even corporate profits.
