Because there is no such thing as a stupid question, I don’t know what this is:
What is the origin of the expression “profit motive”?
From mass media reports, one would think the phrase is a figment of a fractured imagination. Government operates under the assumption that those who want to work one job to pay for a house should work two in order to buy a house for somebody feigning a disability. Those holding elective office have records so expunged, they can’t conceive of a fallen world in which a handful of us ignorant masses might do something dishonest to abandon wage serfdom for the life of the leisure class.
