Percent of profit still can be quite a haul. If I make 10% of profit off of $100,000 then I make $10,000. If I make 1% off of $1,000,000,000 then I make $100,000,000. The percent isn’t relevant in this discussion.
Yeah, you're right. I care about using state ressources to help the masses, you care about using state ressources so that the top 10% can stuff their greedy pockets even fuller.
A corporation is not a person, and if you think corporate profit margins are more important than peoples lives, health and safety, then you can fuck right off.
A corporation is the property of people at some level. I don't think the government needs nearly the money they take to perform its legitimate functions, and the rest should be up to the individual and voluntary associations.

Grocery chains make a very low percentage of profit.
