So you would you sell a child into slavery...

in a third world country. Some countries don't care, and you can make a fortune doing it.
Many people do that for pure profit also, however most people won't because it goes against the morals of society.
I agree that business are for profit, but there is a line that is drawn between pure profit and moral standards.
You can still make a nice profit, while not discriminating against women and minorities.
You can still make a nice profit, while respecting local zoning laws.
You can still make a nice profit, while paying people decent wages.
Look at Costco Club, one of the top rated places to work, or Ikea, also a nice place to work.
Profit and morals are not mutually exclusive, and companies that think they are, are finding out to the contrary and quickly.
