This is just baseless, predictable cynicism, devoid of any understanding of basic economics. Someone is doing good work for society and making money? Insert boilerplate remark about how greedy they must be.

Of course, not only is it distinctly possible to contribute to society and make a profit—it’s basically the only way. In the real world loads of researchers and engineers and other employees aren’t going to work for free to appease random Internet cynics (who rarely if ever make positive contributions to society of their own, mind you), so capital is required which entails investors and returns on investment. Yeah, that means insurers or someone else paying money.

Looks like I was right, you're clearly so emotional invested that you've failed to notice how you just repeated what I wrote... but with greater verbosity and the kind of angry tone that makes an opinion so easy to dismiss.
