I find it funny that people scorn the pursuit of economic profits, but complain that the other "better" activities aren't given economic rewards.

Ultimately "Corporate Profits" produce the economic value that people desperately want, and participating in the creation of something people want _should_ be a prerequisite for getting economic value in return.

I'm not really sure what you're arguing here. All I'm saying is that corporate profits shouldn't dictate every aspect of society. That's why sane countries have implemented things like universal healthcare and free primary/secondary education.

I'm also proposing that in a wealthy first world country, perhaps nobody should have to go homeless. Crazy idea, I know.

What have these "corporate profits" you worship ever done for homeless people?
