No it is not the subject but you misrepresented/misunderstood my comments with regard to exports.
The company does not set out not to make a profit but can continue for many years without making one. Look at the old American Motors. In fact, one could continue indefinitely without making money or paying income taxes.
That may (or may not) be the case for a sizeable company with access to lots of financial backing, but even then it depends of factors outside the tax system (the dot com craze and consequent stock market movement for example).
Many - or perhaps most - small businesses do not have that sort of access to the financial sstem.
