Is making a profit immoral? No.

Is making a profit blatantly from the misfortunes of others immoral? I would say Yes.

So, my doctor and dentist are both immoral for charging me a fee (with profit) when I go to them with an illness? Is my being ill not a misfortune? Seems pretty cold-hearted of you.
