Overly cynical.

All companies exist to provide profits to their owners.

Overly simplistic.

Not all companies exist to provide profits to their owners. There are thousands of companies in the U.S. and elsewhere which exist for other reasons.

Sure, “all” is a powerful word. It was simplistic enough to support my point, which still stands though. Perhaps it is more useful to discuss the central point on debate, instead of being picky on points that are not central to the debate?
