Increasing your own personal wealth is the entire point of entrepreneurship. Even if an entrepreneur were to sit on profits because the value money more than actual wealth, they would be helping poor people by increasing the purchasing power of their money.
It's like I'm talking to a creationist.
Nothing helps poor people like employers making more and more money. Why, the best thing that ever happened to a WalMart employee was the Waltons making 30k times what they do while they rely on a second slave-wage job and government assistance to survive.
What good is the purchasing power of money you don't have?
