Do you buy Louis Vuitton and complain about the profits LVMH are making?
Stop feeding these businesses with your support if it's something that important to you.

I support capitalism but that's not what this is. This is corporate welfare. Should taxpayers pay for LVMH's manufacturing, retail and office facilities? The individual customer's support or lack of it for a company should be determined by whether they purchase their product/service or not. That's capitalism.
