Are you seriously advocating for breaking any law in the quest for profits?

The law is far from perfect which is why it's constantly changing. If only it changed faster and actually represented the majority's values.

Our system of government is specifically designed to limit the tyranny of the majority. It may not be to your liking but a lot of smart people who came before you learned that slow and steady change is what effects actual progress, and (additionally) what the majority wants right now isn't necessarily what we should be implementing wholesale.

And by "the majority's values" you mean "my wallet".
