Profit (and loss) is fine as a motive when gov’t isn’t involved
Replying to @marwilliamson
It doesn't... that's why we are where we are... predetermined winners and losers...

Now you got the right idea. Each thing mentioned is why there are two different outlooks in those fields and would have anybody on either side want to verify where the truth lies.
Replying to @marwilliamson

Let’s get rid of profit in our prison system too and focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment.

And all produce the most profits. Greed has no motivation to fix it.
