gollark: There's nothing wrong with doing good in a way which also brings you some profit.
gollark: Oh no, imagine doing good things and having a system reward you slightly for it via tax writeoffs?
gollark: I mean, Bill Gates is good, he's donated lots of money to philanthropic causes.
gollark: You could actually do something about homelessness or whatever. Most people could. Capitalism mostly aggregates people's preferences into results, ish. But most people do not seem to care about poverty/homelessness enough to act on it, beyond sometimes saying that if you go along with [DRASTIC CHANGE TO ENTIRE ECONOMIC/SOCIAL/POLITICAL SYSTEM] the whole problem will magically evaporate.
gollark: Produce a thing people like, sell it, and obtain cashmoney.
