since nobody is allowed to just pocket allof that money as a profit
Is this because they are non-profits? For-profit enterprises like Apple seem to have no trouble capturing 40% of revenue as profit, so somebody is allowed to. What is the rule?
A major difference with Apple is they aren’t asking any 3rd party to fund loans (e.g. Dept. of Edu. & Colleges) or pay for service (Med insurance), so zero organized pushback on price. And in the case of Apple’s luxury products the absurd price tag and unaffordability to the masses is part of the status symbol they’re selling.
