    Oh didn't see that, sorry.

    So basically profiteering is just good capitalism in your eyes.

    So if someone decides to hoard ventilators as well, you're ok with that? And if it isn't immoral, then why did they just enact a law against it?

    What do you mean by "profiteering?"

    No. I don't even see how these are comparable situations. Are you suggesting that the life and death implications of the lady hoarding TP are similar / on par with the consequences of someone hoarding ventilators?

    IDK. Probably "they" stand to gain something from passing said law.

    laws != morals

    Sometimes, laws guide morals. Sometimes, morals guide laws. Often, they're unrelated.
