The truly immoral, nearly obscene United States of Capitalism

Whatever happened to morality, anyway? Like the morality of not billing for all you can bill, even if it is "health care"? The immorality of charging a fee because someone has come down ill and can't fly on an airplane so they're penalized so much money, in order to rebook the flight? The immorality of charging a "billing fee" from a person's insurance agency or some such. In that case, it's as though a furniture company billed the customer for selling a chair. We are a strange people. We let so many things pass which, frankly, shouldn't be, all because it's "business", as though somehow that makes it okay.
