  Keith - it is not asset stripping. I realise that it is a difficult concept people to understand but profit generates the ability to invest and to pay the dividends that attract investors. Nothing is stolen at all - you invest your money that provides a business with capital and in return you get a dividend. Without that investment a business has to borrow and pay that back with interest to the bank. Sometimes both options are used and often are. Your bills are lower than they would be because of that system.
  
  Everything, Keith, absolutely everything you have and the income you receive are all there only because of profit, it is not a dirty word. The profit motive provides the food on your table, the clothes on your back and the computer you type this on. It is taxes on those profits and the salaries generated as a result of profit that generates the tax revenues that pays state pensions and public services. Everything depends on profit ultimately.
