> Profit is purpose.

Only in a capitalistic system, which he is arguing needs revision. Your argument is therefore tautological.




My argument only requires that people own their own property/labor and have the freedom to trade those things with others.

Without those freedoms we're in some dystopian/totalitarian state.


In modern society, people do not own their own property (ie, real estate). Please elaborate on why this is a requirement for profit?
