I agree that if you can't make a profit you should not be in business; however, making a profit shouldn't be the most important factor. If you can't make a profit in an ethical manner you probably shouldn't be in business either.
Personally, if I can't make a profit by doing what is "right" I will close the doors and look for a job elsewhere. Some would say that by low-balling their abstractors they are just trying to make a profit. That doesn't make it right. There are better ways to make a profit, and if you can't find a better way your days are probably numbered anyway.
A good part of any business education is "corporate responsibility" - ethics in business are too often ignored for the sake of profit. In my book that is no way to run a business. Not to say it doesn't happen - often - but I would never take that route.
Best,
Robert A. Franco
