Nothing unethical about voluntary contracts that you freely enter into. There are tradeoffs and you'd do well to acknowledge agency in this world.

Good for them. They should take as much as they can from dumb investors. If you think one person can generate $250M in revenue, go for it! But, I suspect that's why most companies can't make a dollar in profits.
