The justification for business owners making profits is that it's payment for taking risks. Why then are we trying to shield them from risks while still allowing them to make profits?
Business owners making profit needs no justification, that's entirely backward. Anywhere there are people, there are goods for sale. The ones who need to justify themselves are the ones who propose to restrict this. It can be done, I consider the restrictions on the nuclear weapons and slave markets eminently justifiable. But in a free society, the default is freedom.
