>If we take out the word "exploit", what are these "tolerable limits" of productive use you're pointing to?

Business transactions fundamentally rely on the parties concerned coming to an agreement in order to proceed. If the parties are not in agreement, which is to say if the exploitation (aka the terms of the transaction) is not within "tolerable limits", the business transaction cannot proceed.

Therefore, and I reiterate: All business is about exploiting someone somewhere for your benefit, no exceptions. The only question is whether that exploitation is within tolerable limits.

>When pushed on why you think business is dangerous

I have never said nor implied such a thing.[1][2]
