Some people say that profit of companies is actually unpaid labour. What do you think about that?

Let's dig a bit deeper. What is profit? It is money paid by customers. We are duped if someone makes a profit, are we? Profit compensates the seller or manufacturer for his risk? Profit is stolen money by underpaying labour? Plus overpricing customers, plus underpaying suppliers? Plus avoidance of tax paying? Plus taking advantage of everybody who isn't in a position to bribe back? No! It is the reward The Lord grants to the true believers! So sayeth The Lord! Problem solved. At least when you are a member of the Anglo-Saxon-Commerce-Ideology.
