Do you have a percentage? 8%? 10%? Compaired to other industries? Just asking.

That’s about 10% against $460 billion in total revenues. It’s not outlandish on a percentage basis and I don’t have a huge problem with them making the money. I’m simply pointing out that the people with the biggest profit motive are not a bunch of scientists but a set of companies that together raked in well over a trillion dollars in 2008, or about 10% of the entire US GDP.
