          nobody believes for a minute they’re not profitable

          That’s not a question of beliefs. We’re not in a church.

        I didn’t realize people can’t do a 10 second google search on their own. 🙄

        Net income isn’t the whole story anyways, especially when this article points out that one of their costs is lobbying for a cause that isn’t necessary. They’re raking in billions of dollars every year.

          You specifically chose to quote a sentence about profit and then provide a number that is not profit. What was the point of commenting at all if the number you provided had no relevance?

            What was the point of commenting this instead of looking up their profit and posting that instead?

            Edit: They won’t answer that so I’ll answer it for them. These shills are trying to rip down my credibility to push a narrative even though the specific number they’re looking for also happens to be enormous.

              I’m not a shill as far as I know. What if I agree with them that it would have made more sense to mention profit #? Do I instantly become a “shill” too? If so, where can I get my check?
