I use the Sriracha company [0] as a model of capitalism done right. The guy (CEO and founder) just wants everyone to have good hot sauce. I often think about what different things (cell phone apps, cars, homes, etc) would look like if people actually cared about who they were selling to and what they were selling. (I mean specifically: "what if profit wasn't the central concern?".)
